I think your statement is valid only for:
- parallel direct loads
- global indexes during direct load into a partition.

There probably is a bug with SQL*Loader and direct load,
but after a direct load, indexes usually are in unusable state.
That is to be expected and is not a part of the bug description.
The situation is widely described in the oracle manuals, which
makes it a feature, not a bug (no, I'm not trying to be funny, it=20
comes naturally)
Also, if you can't see the bug text, it doesn't mean that it
is not on Metalink, it only means that it is not open to public yet.
I bitterly argued about opening bugs to public with the oracle guy
on this list, who is the universal culprit and can be blamed for=20
just about anything, including the bad weather, but he is still=20
not convinced that opening the bug database to the general public=20
(with the support contract, of course) is a good idea. His argument
was (and I must partially agree with him) that bugs have to reach
certain level of "maturity" (be confirmed as such, and replicated=20
in the test environment). Before that state is reached, bugs are
visible to the lucky owner of the database and oracle support only.
