FYI
Oracle Support just called me back, apparently I was using the "old" version
of the 8.1.6.3.1. patch, they retired it and re-introduced a "new"
8.1.6.3.1. patch in February.
Since then they produced patches 8.1.6.3.2, 8.1.6.3.3, and 8.1.6.3.4. All
since February.
They asked me why I wasn't considering implementing 8.1.7... I told them I
would rather play it safe, once 8.1.7 has been out for a while, maybe.
