Yong,

It seems to me that you are missing the point here.  The real point is that
you should not have granted "select on some table to internal" - ever.  And
a new release caught you on this mistake.  And now, you have to fix it.  It
is not an Oracle problem, but a mis-use of an Oracle "internal" user.

What you did implies that you are running sql statements while connected as
internal.  Why in the world you would take this chance is beyond me -
strictly a no-no.

Tim,

I checked v$reserved_words. At least in 9.2.0.1, INTERNAL is not in there.
Oracle should address this issue.

When I trace the SQL GRANT SELECT ON SOMETABLE TO INTERNAL, it stops in
parsing.

Nonetheless, it's confusing to say the least to create a role called
internal.
