DBMS_XMLSAVE - insert - propagateOrginalException - ORA 29540

Question

The use of DBMS_XMLSave.propagateOriginalException causes my insert of an XML row to fail with the following error:
ORA-29540: class oracle/xml/sql/save/OracleXMLStaticSave does not exist
I would like to use the propagateOriginalException and getexceptioncontent procedures so that I can raise simple error messages like ORA-00001 unique constraint violated.
Here is the PL/SQL block:
declare
xml_ins_row1 VARCHAR2(32000) := '<ROWSET><ROW><REG_ID>54398</REG_ID><NAME>SOMEWHERE</NAME><ACTIVE>Y</ACTIVE></ROW></ROWSET>' ;
xml_ins_row2 VARCHAR2(32000) := '<ROWSET><ROW><REG_ID>54399</REG_ID><NAME>SOMEWHERE</NAME><ACTIVE>Y</ACTIVE></ROW></ROWSET>' ;
vn_rows BINARY_INTEGER := 0 ;
saveCtx DBMS_XMLSave.ctxType;
vi_err INTEGER := 0;
vc_msg VARCHAR2(4000) ;
begin
-- set up the save context...!
saveCtx := DBMS_XMLSave.newContext('REGIONS');
DBMS_XMLSave.setRowTag(saveCtx, 'ROW');
DBMS_XMLSave.clearKeyColumnList(saveCtx);
-- set propagate original exception to true to get the original exception..!
-- DBMS_XMLSave.propagateOriginalException(saveCtx, TRUE);
vn_rows := DBMS_XMLSave.insertXML(saveCtx, xml_ins_row1);
DBMS_XMLSave.closeContext(saveCtx) ;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
DBMS_XMLSave.getExceptionContent(saveCtx, vi_err, vc_msg);
DBMS_XMLSave.closeContext(saveCtx); -- you must close the context.
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Error num: ' || TO_CHAR(vi_err)) ;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Error msg: ' || vc_msg) ;
end;
Here is the tabledef:
CREATE TABLE REGIONS (      REG_ID NUMBER (38) NOT NULL,
               NAME VARCHAR2 (50) NOT NULL,
               ACTIVE CHAR (1) DEFAULT 'Y' NOT NULL,
               CONSTRAINT REG_ACTIV_001 CHECK (ACTIVE IN ('Y', 'N')) ,
               CONSTRAINT REG_UK1 UNIQUE (NAME) USING INDEX ,
               CONSTRAINT REG_PK PRIMARY KEY ( REG_ID ) USING INDEX )
Thanks in advance for you thoughts!

It seems to be related to an insert/update for the same context
having different columns with "values" in it.
I have 3 rows. For the AMT column the first row has 151.56,
the second row has 100.00, the third row has .00
The third row fails with this error :
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error
ORA-06512: at "MTRSTEST.KIM_RTL_XML_PKG", line 150
ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception:
oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException:
Invalid context handle specified.
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_XMLQUERY", line 170
ORA-06512: at "MTRSTEST.KIM_RTL_XML_PKG", line 193
ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception:
oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException:
Expected 'EOF'.
ORA-06512: at "MTRSTEST.KIM_TEST", line 197
ORA-06512: at line 1
If I change the third row to say 10.00, for example, it works
fine.
We had not been on xdk9 yet, I'm having them install xdk9 and
we'll see if the problem persists.
