Should be possible to dredge that out of pg_constraint ... about like
this:

select confrelid::regclass, af.attname as fcol,      conrelid::regclass, a.attname as col
from pg_attribute af, pg_attribute a, (select conrelid,confrelid,conkey[i] as conkey, confkey[i] as confkey  from
(selectconrelid,confrelid,conkey,confkey,               generate_series(1,array_upper(conkey,1)) as i        from
pg_constraintwhere contype = 'f') ss) ss2
 
where af.attnum = confkey and af.attrelid = confrelid and     a.attnum = conkey and a.attrelid = conrelid;

Deconstructing those arrays in parallel is a bit of a pain :-(
