Likely given that VFP is past end-of-life.

That is many versions past. The only thing I can think of at the moment is:
https://odbc.postgresql.org/docs/release.html
psqlODBC 09.05.0100 Release
Changes:
Use libpq for all communication with the server
Previously, libpq was only used for authentication. Using it for
all communication lets us remove a lot of duplicated code. libpq is now
required for building or using libpq.
You might try the version immediately preceding the above:
psqlODBC 09.03.0400
to see if you get the old behavior or new.
