I've seen this behavior in IE 6 & 7. The fix I used was (for IE) to copy
over the HTML:

You'd probably want to use outerHTML in your instance, but I believe that
will fix the problem.
I think the jQuery team has gone back and forth on whether or not jQuery
should resolve this problem in the clone() method. I know there are several
little quirks with the clone() method right now--and this is one of them.
