('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is)
Not quite the good reason, since triggers and views are stored in LONGs and you can get this type of message too...
Remember that procedures were introduced with Oracle 6, and there were no CLOBs then. It was either a LONG (already used to store view text) or lines of varchars, which I think were then limited to 2,000 characters (or perhaps 255 like Oracle5)? For having used LONGs in Pro*C programs, my question would rather be 'why is view and trigger text stored in LONGs'. Lines are much easier to process.
