dba_extents view in Oracle 10.2.0.2

Everybody:

Has anyone experienced performance issues with dba_extents view (bug 5029334)? I was told by Oracle that
the workaround is to create a new view and use it instead of dba_extents. When I asked whether I can just recreate the dba_extents view I was told that the results can be far reaching and should be fully tested. I interpret that as Oracle does not really know what the results are. I wanted to see if anyone has hit this bug and what did you do.

thank you
