This could be related ann issue with how uncompression is done. Check doc-id 634007.992 on Metalink, from which I have extracted this:
Patches and software downloaded from Oracle are in the .zip format. To unzip them on your particular platform, a native executable is required. For our customers' convenience, we have made copies available for most popular platforms.
Please go to:
