hi:
I create a empty table with the same table/index structure in 9.2.0.5 & 8.1.7.4 test environments and exp/imp the table/index statistics into test environments.
The 9i test database still chose the bad index, but *8i test database chose the right plan.*
Even when I set the *ANONYMOUS_CE_IDX index's *statistics to very big value, it still chose the bad one.
I agree that this maybe a 9.2.0.5 bug.

I think it's a bug.
Check MetaLink.
A possible candidate is *Bug 4112254 - CBO may not choose best index for single table access with unpeeked bind/function*
I just searched MetaLink on CBO Bug 9.2.0.5
You should probably check there.
