The last time I went through the documentation from Oracle on doing an upgrade. Planning for one of my 8.1.6.3 to be upgraded to 8.1.7 the installation manual and Metalink's articles on upgrading specifically called for the migration to be done (for all instances that were to be migrated) first, then to apply the patches to bring it up to the latest revision 8.1.7.4 at least on Sun Solaris.
