It's not clear why think your problem is related to the problem discussed
in the KB article. Apparently, your procedure has a cursor, so there
might be other reasons for these locks.
Is the entire loop one transaction?
As a shot in the dark, if the cursor declaration just says:
DECLARE cur CURSOR FOR
try adding INSENSITIVE before CURSOR.
