I did a workaround/hack to fix the problem, but there should be some better
way to fix this. I had to make sure that the locking order in
getNotifications() is same as in executeQuery(), but that meant exposing the
QueryExecutor in the ProtocolConnection (the QueryExecutorImpl is saved as
private variable inside ProtocolConnectionImpl). So I had to make the
following changes (it's not pretty, I know...):
=====================================
org/postgresql/jdbc2/AbstractJdbc2Connection.java
1012,1014c1012,1016
< // Backwards-compatibility hand-holding.
< PGNotification[] notifications = protoConnection.getNotifications();
< return (notifications.length == 0 ? null : notifications);
---

protoConnection.getNotifications();

=====================================
org/postgresql/core/v2/ProtocolConnectionImpl.java
and
org/postgresql/core/v3/ProtocolConnectionImpl.java

With these changes the problem was solved, but not in the best way.
Any comments?
