correct, the crashreport indicates that he was using Beta2 rather than 
release or something close to release.

that should work. is there a testcase that fails ?

trivial to implement if its really part of DOM spec, and I really like 
kicking Mozilla's ass ;-)
are there test pages available ?

why buggy ?

hmm. It can't return "true", it returns the new Node. I don't understand 
that either, we use cloneNode in various places internally. if it wouldn't
