Intermittent ORA-00942 error

Question

Hi,
I'm getting an intermittent ORA-00942 (Table or View Does Not Exist) error in Oracle 9i. We're getting it in several different packages, and they all have one thing in common.
They are all either joining to a table type that had previously been populated with a BULK COLLECT INTO or a temp table that was populate with a CAST (from the same table type) or has a TABLE CAST directly in the join.
This is the type:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE fe_id_tab AS TABLE OF INTEGER NOT NULL;
This is the table:
create global temporary table FE_TMP_ID
ID INTEGER not null
on commit delete rows;
Again, this is an intermittent error. It only happens occasionally, and when it does happen, if you immediately run the same query, it works fine.
Thanks,
Karin

ORA-12012: error on auto execute of job "SYS"."UTL_RECOMP_SLAVE_24"

As this happens in a production environment, the customer doesn't want to turn on the tracing but wants to know
if this is a problem with the data dictionary or someother issue. Any inputs appreciated.
Yes, it is a problem with data dictionay or some other issue.
do as below so we can know complete Oracle version & OS name.
Post via COPY & PASTE complete results of
SELECT * from v$version;
