You probably already read this several times, but just for the sake of
completeness:
Oracle(r) Database Upgrade Guide
10g Release 1 (10.1)
Part No. B10763-02
http://otn.oracle.com/pls/db10g/db10g.to_pdf?pathname=server.101%2Fb10763.pdf&remark=portal+%28Getting+Started%29

This may prove to be useful:
 "An Oracle 10g Upgrade Case Study: Looking at System Performance
Before and After the Upgrade," by Roger Schrag (February 2005).
http://www.dbspecialists.com/presentations.html

So you're gathering 10046 and 10053 traces of the problematic
statements and are going to post examples shortly, right?

If you use optimizer_features_enabled=8.1.7 you are going to disable
features that are included in the 9.2 and 10.1 CBO. Think of this in
terms of applying a tourniquet that will be extremely difficult to
remove.
