Has anyone applied Jan 2008 CPU yet?

Question

I patched all the nodes successfully, came to the post-installation instructions which said
Select one node to execute the post installation steps. Follow the same set of instructions as mentioned in the Section 3.3.3, "Post Installation Instructions for a Non-RAC Environment".
Users can continue to access the database during the post-installation steps.
Now the script view_recompile_jan2008cpu.sql that has to be run
1) cannot be run unless it is in startup upgrade mode
2) I cannot open a node in startup upgrade mode while other nodes are open, makes sense
What would you do?
I took out the startup upgrade check out of the script but this was only a play system, I don't really want to do this to prod or to shut down all nodes just to start one in upgrade mode

As per readme
You must recompile views for all databases except the following:
* Databases created with Release 11.1.0.6 or later
* Databases created with any release (for example, 10.2.0.3, 10.1.0.5, or 9.2.0.8) after CPUJan2008 or a later CPU has been applied
So in above case Users can continue to access the RAC database during patching
