I would think if the version did not matter there would not be versions.

In particular:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/18/protocol-overview.html#PROTOCOL-VERSIONS

I don't think that applies here, but it would not hurt to eliminate the 
possibility.

What would be really useful though is the actual test SQL being run so 
others can confirm/not confirm the error.
