I had some trouble like this way-back-when 8i was released. I found out that
8i listener couldn't service 8.0.5 (8.0.6 was OK). I had to set up named
listeners and that worked OK in my environment.

I'm with you, Rich. I don't know where I got it, but I've believed it to be
appropriate if not recommended to run the listener from the latest release
you have installed for that release and each one prior that you may have on
that system (unless you need a special listener for some reason.). We
currently do that. The only problem I've encountered is running a 9i
listener from a 64 bit install and using that for an 8i, 32 bit instance.
The listener crashed a lot.
