So I submitted Bug#66582.

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/error-message-language.html
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/internals/en/ch29s01s02.html

“Deadlock found, hunt down and beat all other users, or just retry”

Or even “haiku”:

“You just deadlocked, we rolled back your transaction, retrying would be proper”

Of course, these are server error messages, and the client would see client error messages too (especially in the case of a killed connection).. That grand old “Lost connection to MySQL server during query” that could be any number of things.. :)
