ORA-31693: Table data object failed to load/unload and ORA-01031: insufficient privileges when using expdp

ORA-31693 and ORA-01031 could be seen when exporting the full schema with flashback_time clause.

ORA-31693: Table data object "SCHEMA"."Table_name" failed to load/unload and is being skipped due to error:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

Database version is 11.1.0.7. The error only appears intermittently and only for some tables. Metalink note 13715680.8 says the issue is also confirmed on 11.2.0.2 and 11.2.0.3
This is caused by user doing the export not having the flash back privileges. Granting flashback any table privilege to the user doing the export resolves the issue (confirmed on 11.1.0.7).
