This quirk is documented on Jonathan Lewis' website http://www.jlcomp.demon.co.uk/ Basically, in 8.1.5 (I think) Oracle would let you get away with having a commit during the fetch of a for update cursor. 8.1.6 and beyond don't let you do this. The way around this is to fetch out the rowid instead of using FOR UPDATE.
