Did I miss something? What does "stored procedures" have to do with "Transactional DDL"?

Actually, Oracle inserts implicit COMMIT after each DDL.

So, if you have:

BEGIN;
INSERT INTO foo (bar) VALUES (1);
CREATE INDEX foo_bar ON foo (bar);
-- Here Oracle will insert implicit COMMIT, thus your foo table will
have value 1 commited.
-- And here Oracle will BEGIN a new trasaction.
INSERT INTO foo (bar) VALUES (2);
ROLLBACK;
-- And you will rollback the insert of value 2.  Value 1 remains in the
table,
-- because it is already committed.
