I think it means Oracle is broken ;-)

That might be taking the notion of bug-compatibility with PL/SQL
a bit too far. For that matter, did you check whether Oracle
actually treats it as a procedure-scope variable? Try having the
exception block call another function and trap an error inside that.
Does SQLCODE change in the calling function?
