Regression in 7.18.0 causing "unsupported frontend protocol 1234.5679: server supports 2.0 to 3.0"

I don’t use pg directly but through sequelize (ORM). Updating to 7.17.0 works fine. 7.17.1 works fine, but the same unchanged code with pg 7.18.0 will throw an exception on connection:

unsupported frontend protocol 1234.5679: server supports 2.0 to 3.0

I don’t have the full exception atm but this bit:

at Connection.connectingErrorHandler (C:\Users\jant\Repos\get-coffee\packages\get-coffee-api\node_modules\pg\lib\client.js:194:14)
    at Connection.emit (events.js:210:5)
    at Connection.EventEmitter.emit (domain.js:476:20)
    at TLSSocket.<anonymous> (C:\Users\jant\Repos\get-coffee\packages\get-coffee-api\node_modules\pg\lib\connection.js:144:12)
    at TLSSocket.emit (events.js:210:5)
    at TLSSocket.EventEmitter.emit (domain.js:476:20)

    at TLSSocket.Readable.push (_stream_readable.js:223:10)
    at TLSWrap.onStreamRead (internal/stream_base_commons.js:182:23)

Why do I believe this is a regression: After downgrading to 7.17.1, connection works fine. After upgrading to 7.18.0, it breaks again.

sorry again for the disruption! Please don’t hesitate to open another issue if there’s something amiss. I’ll be watching for the next several hours at least. ❤️
