The clone bug is a failure to restore r19 correctly. This results in
an immediate crash when attempting to access a variable via the PIC
register. It doesn't matter in 99% of the cases where the $$dyncall
sets r19 and we jump to the target plabel.

I argue that this is not the clone bug.

It doesn't explain it ... because it's not that bug.
