Mike,
I have often used the fixative when I do a charcoal drawing before painting and I have never experienced any problems.

The fixative is the type used on pastel drawings, it is not fatty in any way.

I believe that the oil, in the paint, will penetrate both the drawing and the fixative and in that way include the drawing into the oil paint itself.
