Do you believe that the patch is relaesed by third party?
Here's the release information:
"..a free patch for VFP 9.0 is available to run it on NT 4.0. The patch has been
created by the German FoxPro User Group (www.dfpug.de) and can be found at
the dFPUG document portal in the directory
http://portal.dfpug.de/dFPUG/Dokumente/Freeware/ so VFP-developers do not
need to wait any more to buy an update of VFP 9.0 if they or their customers
still use NT4.
Some Technical details what the patch program does:
1. vfp90nt4.dll is copied to Windows system directory
2. vfp9r.dll and vfp9t.dll in VFP-Runtime folder at "Shared Files" are
patched.

offer it as an [sic] own download - please link to the above mentionend [sic] directory
