Deadlocks are an internal server problem and not easily programmatically involved. This post of mine has a few links, but restarting your mySQL server should clear the dead lock for the time being:

It's happened only once, if I see it pop-up in the server error log again I'll inform my host, this can be a one off issue since its the first time such an error has occurred and it's only once. Thanks for the link, I'm ignoring it now since it's just once as you suggested on the other thread
