During a procedure execution with the default definer rights, all the roles are disabled.(for more information pls. see the PL/SQL manual or http://osi.oracle.com/~tkyte/Misc/RolesAndProcedures.html ).

If roles were enabled for the definer right procedures, it would mean that the number of cases when a procedure is invalidated would be greatly increased. Virtually any time any role is modified, many procedures would need to be recompiled. Clearly, a situation like this is undesirable.
