You forgot the AVCON* constraints...
The unload/reload: yeah, classic. The problem could be alleviated if Oracle had an option to not auto-generate constraint names. I don't think there is anything in the SQL standard that says they can be auto-generated. Doing so exposes users to errors like this. I'd rather Oracle didn't, quite frankly: it would *force* people to use correct practices.
