The current version of the extension is stable and a number of the initial bugs have been cleared up. If you use it you will find that it does work fine, but most PHP/Firebird users - like myself - stay with the php_interbase driver on it's own simply because some function are not available via the PDO driver. That only replaces the 'data' interface and does not address some of the control stuff. This is the case with many of the PDO drivers since it is not easy to provide a 'compatible' version of this across all database engines.

I've still got FB1.5 on a number of sites mainly because of legacy apps that can no longer be recompiled, but PHP provides an additional interface to fill the gaps.
