  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  Inserting large amount of multi-byte character data into a
  CLOB column can result in data corruption. The result data in
  the CLOB column in such case would contain characters 0xFC.
  
  
  PROBLEM SUMMARY:
  The problem can occur when working with large lob data (>128kB).
  The lob data is processed in chunks as they are passed by the
  client.  When an internal lob processing buffer containg the
  data chunks is full and there is still data to process, the lob
  data is translated by codepage conversion functions, moved into
  a temporary table and next chunk of data is processed.  In this
  particular defect situation the buffer full condition occurs in
  the middle of the multi-byte character.  The last byte in the
  buffer is not valid multi-byte character so it suppose to be
  remembered and used as the first character of the following
  chunk.  Due to a defect this dangling character is dropped,
  causing all the next multi-byte characters in the following
  chunk to be byte shifted.
