To your last sentence below--I'd additionally consult your own company's legal department. I'm no lawyer either, but if there is a dispute in the future, I think it is unlikely that a defense of "my sales rep told me this is how it works" will hold up ;). As many of us have noted, it's also no good to say "some guy on oracle-l said this is the way it worked".
Then again, maybe I just watch too much Law & Order!

I believe Andrew is correct - for the "Infrastructure
Repository Databases", e.g. Grid Control/OEM, RMAN and the Metadata Repository
for App Server - Oracle requires Enterprise Edition and does partitioning on its
own tables. I'm pretty sure it does this even if you don't run Grid
Control, but just run basic Standard Edition with Database Control - it will
still internally partition some of the AWR tables. You don't have to
purchase the partitioning option for these purposes.
I better throw in the usual disclaimer here - I am not a
lawyer, nor am I authorized to represent Oracle. All statements here are
just my understanding of the docs. Please consult with your Oracle sales
rep for the official answer.
