we have applied patch 5064365 (Release 9.2.0.7 Patch 9 ) succesfully before.
Some things to pay attention to:
- bring down all services/programs that can potentially use Oracle client
libs before you start, including your own sqlplus sessions to bring down
the databases!
- opatch version must be at least 1.0.0.0.55
- set active_state_perl=TRUE and set PERL5LIB to your perllib
- set oracle_home properly
It helps if you can give a brief description of the type of errors you see.
Btw, I noticed today that there's yet another patch on Metalink labeled
5212087 (540K/11-May-2006) According to the description it contains a fix
for DBMS_STATS, I didn't check if 5212087 is a vehicle for fixes of
security issues still open after CPUApr2006.

Andre
