I know you can't do much with this information, but maybe you can help
me acquire the information that is needed.

This started in 8.4 and trying to figure it out

Fedora 12, Postgres 8.4.4 with slony.

Although I don't see any panics or errors other then these Warnings,
but I did see a dead lock the other day and so I need to start diving
into this and try to figure out what is going on.

Thanks for your pointers on how to troubleshoot this

This happens for a decent amount of time each time it happens. 3am,
9pm, 10pm etc.
