Well I have spend some time with this today and here is what I found out.
no errors with present code on 6 installations but you patch causes a
semi- error (incomplete tests) on 4 systems. So me thinks there just
might be some sort of oracle/Debi/DB bub or misconfiguration in you
system.
Most likely a harmless environment variable that is set or a patch or lack
thereof on Oracle that might cause it.
I will keep this patch for now in reserve if other people start
complaining about this test
cheers
