Listener with mixed releases

Got a couple of clients who had us install 10G on some servers where
some have DBs and some don't.

The installers activated the 10G listener (because we always use highest
version) and we got 1000s of 
 oerr tns 12618
12618, 00000, "TNS:versions are incompatible"
// *Cause: The two machines are running incompatible versions of TNS.
// *Action: Check the version numbers, and upgrade the machine with the
// smaller one.

What's really happening is anytime someone/thing, like monitor programs,
executes lsnrctl from lower release we're getting error.

I thought we could just rename lsnrctl in lower releases and put in soft
link to 10G lsnrctl program.

Someone suggested we could have problems with NLS settings and should
replace lsnrctl with a script instead?

Anyone know if link is enough or do we have to watch out for something
else?


        Thanks
        Larry
