I've made only some tests. I've had some problems with a productions system with 11.1.0.6, not yes patched. The system sometimes gives error ORA-03137 that kills the session (no good) and Oracle support after several months hasn't given any solution. In my test environment with 11.1.0.6 on Linux x86-64 (oel 4U5) i've got
some ORA-00600 and ORA-07445. After patching with 11.1.0.7 it seems to be more stable.
