[DUG] Firebird gbak.exe - Application Error - Windows 8

I am using Windows 8 (new install) inside VirtualBox to test my application
and I get this message when it calls GBAK.EXE from a ShellExecuteEx. The
application has worked OK in XP and Win 7.
 
The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to
close the application. 
 
Procmon shows that when GBAK calls FBCLIENT.DLL
CreateFileMapping - FILE LOCKED WITH ONLY READERS
 
I have tried moving a copy of FBCLIENT.DLL into System32 but Procmon just
shows the same error in the new location, as well, in place of previously
shown NAME NOT FOUND in Sys32 path. This "CreateFileMapping" doesn't occur
prior to Win8 afaik. I have tried Troubleshoot Compatibility on GBAK.EXE and
Procom reports the same issue.
 
Any ideas would be appreciated?
 
Geoff
