Please tell me exactly what page you were looking at and what you were doing
when you received this error.

I was entering bug 12093.  I had just pressed the 'submit' button.  The text of
the report (now split into attachments) was missing but the bug was in the
database.

Ok I have one some changes to make Bugzilla insert large text objects into
Oracle using bind_params() in Perl DBI. This should hopefully be fixed until I
convert away from using LONG datatypes in Oracle which should not be too long
from now. Let me know if this happens again.
