7.3.2.3.0 On Netware 3.12

We have the following problems after an Upgrade of Oracle:

Loosing cache-buffers and not getting them back from Oracle (Rebooting der Novellserver helps)
Jumping sequences. Sequences seem to loose there cache and jump to the next 20-step, but not always.....
A INSERT (...) SELECT x,y,z,.... FROM SOMEVARDEFAULTS sometimes results in inserting OLD VALUES of the table SOMEVARDEFAULTS, which have bin overwritten by an update before.

We had to do this upgrade because of a bug in Oracle 7.3 which appeared at deleting Rows of a table with more than one indexed column (Ora 600...). May be the third problem is a result of that.

Did anyone else watch such mysterious things? (We have a patient database, which should not store old values...) Any workarounds?
Is Oracle 7.3 a buggy version?

thanks for any idea
