Question about truncate the audit (aud$)

I activated the audit under the sys and altered its tablespace out of system and put it into a user schema tablespace. However, according to the principle, I should periodically store the content to another place (out of system ). I believe I can write a procedure under the sys to copy the content to other user’s table and TRUNCATE out the content. Although many previous newsgroup articles suggest to grant the execute privilege to another user to run the procedure. My question is: is that still a bad practice to create a procedure (an object) under the sys which is from the Oracle to define the system and is not supposed to be modified? ( I remembered one of the previous newsgroup articles mentioned about such principle). My system is 8.1.7 on NT 4. Thanks.
