Just as a side-line observation - when I realised
that the problem should have been with the sequence,
I set up a small test on a multi-CPU box to run multiple
concurrent copies of:
    begin
        for i in 1..100000 loop
            insert into t1 values (test_seq.nextval);
        end loop;
    end;

I couldn't get a single row cache lock wait.
This was using 8.1.7.4 on HPUX 11.

So I wonder if the waits you were seeing were a
side-effect of another issue, or highly version
dependent.
