Problems building a spatial index - this must be a bug please help!

Question

Hi,
We have a rather large spatial data warehouse. The schema is a star schema and is partitioned. During a load recently we had an error with one particular dataset, when building the index we got:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-29855: error occured in the execution of ODCIINDEXCREATE routine
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_INDEX_METHOD_10I", line 10
We have seen this kind of thing before, but usually dropping the data and reloading works fine (or rebuild the index). I should not that this obviously occurs before the partition is exchanged in. We are running 10.2.0.2 on red hat ES3.
With this error we tried to reload the data, but get the same. We tried the data on another copy of the system, and the same. We have tried the data on a 10.2.0.3 and an 11.1.0.6 database and all fail at the same location. We have validated the geometries - all fine, I have tried changing the DIMINFO so that it spans the whole globe, it failes again (by the way we are on SRID 8307 and all data is point type). The data is approx 1.2M rows and I have tried subdividing it up into smaller tables and these all build fine. I have partitions with much higher row counts and these are fine. I have tried everything possible including changing index parameters e.g. parallel tablespace etc. I have tried it on a tablespace without ASSM and one with and both fail. I have an export of the data if anyone would be available to try it?
I would really appreciate any help at all on this one.
Thanks
Jonathan

There was a post a few months ago that addressed issues with 10.2.0.3 and Spatial index creation: Re: Fixed ...
