ActionForm is referred to via a scoped variable, this is what <form-bean name = "..." /> is about. I don't know what did you change in your custom RequestProcessor, but default behavior for request-scoped ActionForms is that they are disposed when response is sent to the browser, and a new instance is created on request, this instance is stored in the request scope (again, and again and again on each request).
Bottom line: you need to stick your cloned ActionForm into the request object under the name you specified in struts-config.xml file. Obviously, you need to do it *after* RequestProcessor created a new instance and put it into request. Or you may want to rewrite processActionForm() method so it would use your cloned instance.
