To me it sounds like the dealer overstepped their boundarys and promised something they couldn't keep (maybe to make a quick $600.00).
I haven't heard anything that Saab would honor the 8 year engine warranty for the B204L engine (just as you mentioned) and for the B205 and B235 engines, the oil change intervals needs to be verified every 5K miles (plus 2K) for the warranty claim to stick.
Saabs reasoning for this is that if the engine is sludged up, the owner has driven it under "extreme" conditions and in the owners manual it says to change the oil every 5K miles under extreme condition.
