There is a bug related to altering types that can corrupt the data
dictionary - when I ran into this I could, by selecting from
user_source, see that each line was literally in twice. One way of
fixing this is to extract the DDL, manually edit it, drop the object and
replace. (If it's part of an object hierarchy you will need to go
through those hoops as well).
