From my experience, PostgreSQL doesn't report deadlocks. This is true
when purposely creating a dead-lock situation using two instances of
psql. However, unless you've set your transaction isolation level to
SERIALIZABLE ( the default isolation level is READ COMMITED), you will
not be getting deadlocks from PostgreSQL.

Also, IIRC the PostgreSQL JDBC driver only allows a single thread to
access a connection object at a time.

Could this be causing your problem?
