For my 2007, Saab indicated an oil meeting spec GM-LL-A-025 is to be used. This seems to be a "Long Life" spec and it turns out Mobil 1 0w40 and a Castrol 0w30 seem to be the only oils in the US to have that spec. on the bottle.
That said, as you've seen here others have had success with different oils, and it is quite likely you are not screwed.
I've stuck with the 0w40 in the event I need to one day utilize GM's 5-year, 100K mile power train warranty and they get tempted to say "A-HA!!"
