Version 8.2
This table does not have foreign key constraints on it, but it is the
source of foreign key constraints on other tables.
No triggers.

At the time of the failure, no other DML.
There are other's but they are on different tables.

"deadlock detected"
And the corresponding error I get is a primary key violation on the same
table.


The problem occurs when I have multiple processes acting on what appears
to be the exact same set of information.  I can't really control the
issue of simultaneous/parallel processing
