Could someone please explain how to submit a bug to Allaire?
BTW, I was given a pretty good work around from James Ang on the cold fusion
forum: use duplicate(variables.application) instead of just
duplicate(application).
It works for the example below, but I was able to break it as well, with a
slightly more complicated version.
It is strange- the query below is a small query with no rows and it breaks.
Jason says it only failed for him with large queries. I have another
application that has several large queries and multiple levels of
structures, and dupliate works fine in it. I didn't discover the bug until
I used duplicate for something simple.

Subject: RE: bug in duplicate() function crashes server
We've had this problem since duplicate() was released. It only occured with
large queries. We have had to used CFWDDX to copy queries from one variable
name to the other.
At the developer conference I asked a couple Allaire guys if they had come
accross the problem and they hadn't. Maybe they're not duplicating many
queries.
We submitted it to Allaire a few weeks ago and have not heard anything back
from them. The more people complaining about it, the more likely it is to be
corrected, so please send it as a bug (I've never personally submitted a
bug, so I couldn't tell you how to do it).
