Oracle 7.3.?: y2k compliance

Hi Oracle experts,

Oracle states in its white paper at

http://www.oracle.com/year2000/2000/white2000.pdf

that for all common platforms only 7.3.4 and later are y2k-compliant and are supported. For less common platforms 7.3.3 or even 7.3.2 are supported, although there is not obvious reason why the Mac PPC version should be earlier compliant than the Solaris or AIX version.

It looks like Oracle has just listed the _latest_ available releases of the server product and claims that _all_ earlier releases are not compliant, for that all customers are urged to upgrade their server product.

Has anybody found out that I am wrong, i.e. 7.3.2 on Solaris is not compliant but 7.3.4 is? If yes, what are the uncomliancies?

Best regards!
