There is a product call Oracle Open Gateway for ...; I haven't found out many details about it except that Oracle charges $11K for it. If you look in the Oracle Documentation about Heterogeneous Distributed Databases, it discusses the technology a little.

I'm trying a different tack: generate an external procedure to call from PL/SQL; the external procedure opens up ODBC on both databases.
