Yes, the application uses PHP PDO to connect to PostgreSQL. I don't see any way to specify that in the connection
options.

I was looking at the homebrew source for PostgreSQL package to see if there was a way to customize the build options. I
didnot find one but saw the comment below. Apparently this is a known issue and it was suggested to use the MIT
Kerberospackage 4 years ago. Instead they just added this comment in 2020. 

# GSSAPI provided by Kerberos.framework crashes when forked.
