No, I didn't mean that. I meant 'does it matter, or is this just a personal self-education thing?"

I honestly haven't a clue. The bug might not even be what's affecting you. It just happened to fit what another poster wrote about. And I just had a quick look at Metalink to see if anything was mentioned about his problems. I'm certainly no expert. Without a support contract, you'll not be able to discuss these sorts of issues with people that (usually) are. Unless you strike it lucky here.

No chance of upgrading to 9.2, I suppose? It's a much better version than 9.0.1 ever was in any case...
