The only way to get world reads on the trace files in v7 is to set an undocumented init parameter:

        _trace_files_public = TRUE

if you put this line in your init.ora file & bounce the db, you'll get the results you seek. as with all undocumented parameters, you use at your own risk - their use is not supported by Oracle.
