Any progress on this? Since parsing PL/SQL that contains distributed queries creates a transaction, why not move your set transaction read only to the outside of the PL/SQL block, above your first begin?

You said CoreLab's software sends set transaction at the beginning of their transaction. That doesn't sound like sending it as the first line *inside* a PL/SQL block or stored procedure, which is what you're simulating.
