What about the case where a client Pro*C
program (for example) has an embedded
anonymous pl/sql block which does:

begin
    :local_target_variable := procedure xyz(:local_source_variable);
end;

You might also consider the warning that goes
with the NOCOPY option - to the effect that it
is not always possible for NOCOPY to be honoured
because it is not always possible for a pointer to
be used.
