Hmm ... I don't have an F1 key, but I typed escape-O-P at a psql
running under Linux, and got this:

Process 28978 attached - interrupt to quit
read(0, "\33", 1)                       = 1
read(0, "O", 1)                         = 1
read(0, "P", 1)                         = 1
write(2, "\7", 1)                       = 1
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, [], NULL, 8) = 0
read(0,

So it seems fine here.  I'm wondering if there's something broken
about your machine's readline library.
