If you use serializable mode for updating transactions, you must expect
this error and deal with it (by retrying the transaction from the top).

This is discussed in the documentation, eg at
http://www.ca.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/7.3/postgres/transaction-iso.html#XACT-SERIALIZABLE

You might also find it useful to go through the slides from this talk:
