You really call it expected that a process with a parenthesis in the
process title can't use OCI, but gets an obscure error message instead?
Sure, it's a corner case, and in most cases it can be worked around, but
it's still a bug.
Hmm, I wonder if you could do something malicious with it. Like, run a
query along the lines of "SELECT $$ (HOST=10.0.0.123) $$, connect()... "
to divert the connection to another server.
