[Firebird] XAResource and TransactionManager with JayBird, LDAP

I need to access (and update) two separate databases within one
transaction. One of them is Firebird 1.0, the other is any LDAP
database (I know most LDAPs are not transactional, transaction on LDAP
side will be emulated).

I know I need to implement a transaction manager but in order for this
to work I need to retrieve an XAConnection not an ordinary
java.sql.Connection from the JDBC driver because I have to invoke
Transaction.enlistResource(XAResource).

The question is this - how should I use Firebird's JDBC driver
(JayBird) to be able to retrieve XAConnection instances?
