I believe you are correct.

It's probably safer to say "they have implemented a more nearly Oracle
compatible procedural language."

You can get /some/ feel for it by looking at the recent release
notes... <http://www.enterprisedb.com/releasenotes.do>

- They have a "DUAL" table (a table guaranteed to have 1 row)
- You don't need the full function argument "signature" in order
to drop a function; just name the function
- They seem to have added in a SYS user

You can download version 8.0.3.12, which presumably includes some
amount of documentation...
