The issue appears to be the cloned node doesn't have a document pointer
as its ultimate parent. Attached patch should fix that.

I got the same result when using the snapshot, as well as version 5.2.8.

Description:
------------
It appears that cloning a SimpleXML object will not produce the same XML
output on asXML() as the original object. The original will output the
XML header and a line break after the XML while the cloned object is
missing these.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$simplexml = new SimpleXMLElement("<root />");
$simplexml->path->to->node = "Zend";
$simplexml_2 = clone $simplexml;
echo "|{$simplexml->asXML()}|\n|{$simplexml_2->asXML()}|";
Expected result:
----------------
|<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root><path><to><node>Zend</node></to></path></root>
|
|<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root><path><to><node>Zend</node></to></path></root>
|
Actual result:
--------------
|<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root><path><to><node>Zend</node></to></path></root>
|
|<root><path><to><node>Zend</node></to></path></root>|
