+1 i suppose.

Same issue occurs with oracle 11g drivers as well, but you're correct, it's
not a regression -- I hadn't really noticed it because bizzarely, i'm using
the data direct drivers and they don't show the issue.

The issue's been raised on oracles forums a couple of times.

My kingdom for a typed null.
