I have not seen the slightest evidence of this, and don't believe it for 
a minute.

I understand some of the frustration you are feeling, but statements 
like this don't help anything.

(And yes, I too have recently been bitten nastily by cached plan 
problems, and want to see them fixed. I rather like Simon's suggestion 
of a command or function that would clear the plan cache.)
