Well, it may be that it's a thingamabob (there's a technical term for ya!) that only FoxPro trips. I remember hearing from the Fox Team on a couple of occasions that they were strict about programming exactly to the published APIs they were given, and that was why they had problems with drivers like HP printers and ATI cards, because many other devs were just passing around "code that works" while Fox devs were coding to what the docs said.
Much of the world is likely hitting that interface with DotNet, Office apps and/or 64-bit APIs that might not tweak this function.

I'll do that. I do find it a bit hard to believe that nobody else has run across this issue before. It's really strange that the only instance that shows up in a search is the entry I just made!

Agreed. I see you've already got a post on the site. Let's hope they'll fix it.
You might also want to cross-post your bug report to:

In any case,I searched for the string "max_allowed_packet_size" and it shows up in the debug symbols for the ODBC driver itself. Checking the
log
file, it shows an attempt to set that variable to 4096, and then the next entry is "Quit".
Sounds more like a driver issue to me.

I can create a DSN and it says it connects in the Test mode, but I

connect using that DSN (same error as above).
Does the Heidi-SQL tool use DSNs to connect, and if so, can it connect to the server using the DSN you created? If it can and VFP can't, that points to VFP.
I've googled for this error and literally nothing of pertinence shows
up.
I can get the MySQL ODBC 5.3 driver to work, but no luck with the
MariaDB
Connector.
