An Oracle connection created in Creator with DataDirect Drivers is not being migrated

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a new connection in Creator with this url : 
jdbc:sun:oracle://jbrave-pc1.sfbay.sun.com:1521;SID=ora10g

travel/travel

2. Close Creator and Open NB6 with fresh user dir. Click 'YES' to migrate settings from Creator.

3. Open database connections under services tab. Oracle connection will not be migrated. 


Other connections such as MySQL will be migrated but there seems to be an issue with migrating Oracle connection. 

This might be a duplicate of issue 110472. I am not sure so filed a new one.

Also database connection will not be migrated even if Updating Legacy Project completes on migrating a project. 

Importing Oracle connection from 5.5 or 5.5.1 is not a problem.

not a duplicate of 110472

Connections will only be migrated if JDBC drivers exist in the jdbc-drivers folder of the userdir
There are no DataDirect drivers in jdbc-drivers so no connection can be migrated.
