Oracle _officialy_doesn't support it even now. It
is included in the sources with a caveat that it will be installed only under
instructions from the Support Analysts only. That is why the package is not
installed as a part of a normal installation.
Think of it this way - even if it was not included
"by mistake" in 8.1.5, there were two releases of 8i after that, 8.1.6 and
8.1.7, not to mention several patchkits. The mistake could have been easily
fixed by including the source. However, that was not done. Similarly, if it was
a mistake, Oracle support should have been more than happy to send out the
source upon request; but they weren't.
HTH.

Hi,
It
is my understanding that Oracle do support the dbms_support package and that
it should have been in the 8i distribution, but was missed out by mistake.
It's calls to sys.dbms_system.set_ev they do not supoprt since this enables
you to set any debug event in the kernel.
Regards
Pete
Oracle officially "desupported" the package in
8i; but then included (by mistake?) in 9i. In 8i, however, you could pester
your friendly neuighborhood Support Analyst to give you the package. You
could try from 9i sources, too; but not sure if they work.
