What OS?

eg if W2K I have had to stop the Distributed Transaction Coordinator Service before 
the patch could be applied (otherwise files were locked).
        (This applies to any Oracle patch for me)

Also, if Windows note that there is an 81745 patch.

Have you looked at Metalink 
http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=120607.1
 to see the major known issues with 817 releases?
eg  ORA-1002 possible after ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT       <Note:202261.1>

Also, you can search Metalink for a list of bugs in 8174 (search for (say) 
Server-Enterprise Edition with a version of 8.1.7.4)
Have a look at the patches available for 8174 on your platform - this will give an 
indication of the critical bugs that are others have found and got patched.
