Not that I am aware of. Others opinions may vary. But as long as you do not have a condition in which the wet staves were allowed air contact that allowed breeding of undesireables, I would think it would be ok.

One thing you could try is what I do with my old barrels.
Use oak spirals from barrel mill
Screw a stainless eye screw into the bottom of a solid bung that fits our better bottle and attach the oak spiral to the eye screw with stainless steel wire. You can monitor the oakiness and remove the spiral when satisfied. IMHO it is easier than adding chips to a straining bag and then trying to remove the bag and chips.
