Most Oracle upgrades are mandated by conditions of "fixed time to upgrade independent of database size". Oracle doesn't know if you've got 100's of gig's of audit data so it would not be prudent to move it as part of the upgrade process, so it has to stay where it is (wherever that may be). </conjecture>

However, I agree that it should be supported to relocate to SYSAUX once a db is installed. Interestingly, one of the Metalink notes about pre-reqs for upgrade to 10 is to ensure AUD$ is in SYSTEM if auditing is enabled during the process.
