Comment(by robe):

 Yes unfortunately.  Otherwise you get some stupid message that argument
 names have changed and you have to do a drop (when you try to do a CREATE
 OR REPLACE).  If however you go from unnamed to named, you can do a CREATE
 OR REPLACE (presumably because no one could have been using named args).
 I think this drop replace requirement came in 9.0 at the advent of allow
 call by name.

 The only reason I can think they did that is that if you are changing the
 name of input arguments that people may have been using and they were
 using named argument calling, you are essentially changing the user API
 and risk breaking their applications.
