Would it be worthwhile to ask them?

I seem to recall at one point IBM bragging about supporting Oracle on Solaris
with Windows clients - despite IBM owning competing software across the whole
stack.

I imagine many (perhaps nearly all) large companies have multiple database products
somewhere.

I could imagine Oracle wanting to continue to support them, even if
their ulterior motive is to try to switch the user to Sleepycat / BDB or
InnoDB / InnoBase or whatever other data storage products the might own.
