Invalid objects in the sys schema - 8.1.7.4.16 Windows

I am attempting to install 8.1.7.4.16 on Windows 2000.
After installing the software from the CD, I installed the 8.1.7.4
patch and the #68 security patch (8.1.7.4.16).  I then built
a new database with DBCA.  The pl/sql scripts gave me a whole
flock of errors at least half of which appear to relate to
"PLS-00905: object SYS.DBMS_SYS_SQL is invalid".

Looking at SYS.DBMS_SYS_SQL it appears to be choking on a variable
type definition of VARCHAR2A.

I have Oracle Tech Support working on this but they have no answer
so far.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Peter Schauss
