You should really update Lazarus. With an updated version, you also don't need the path to libgds anymore. The library is loaded dynamically. The difference between the Delphi3 TTable and a query is more then the select. The TTable creates the SQL-statement, which has the advantage that it exactly knows what it's doing, so that the TTable is also updateable. Nowadays updating tables is done differently. For example SQLdb parses the supplied query, to see if the query is updateable or not.
