Why try to know it better than the Oracle installation procedure. Export now uses the dbms_java package, I don't like it, but I'm not questioning it Removing it from the path looks like an undesirable measure to me. Apparently the installation procedure has created this entry with good reason. If you don't use it, it will not affect you at all when it's there. However, apparently you, or Oracle, *does* use it, so better leave it alone.
