A possible solution for this problem could be restricting Oracle support to a single (commercial) distribution. This is e.g. what Caldera does with Wordperfect for Linux.
This does not necessarily limit the possibilities to use the software on other distributions. Then however, the user does this at his own risk.

I would welcome such an approach!
