Oops. What about:

"Cloning SDVO with anything is often impossible, since the SDVO encoder
can request a special input timing mode. And even if that's not the case
we have evidence that cloning a plain unscaled mode with VGA doesn't
really work. Furthermore the cloning flags are way to simplistic anyway to
express such constraints, so just give up on cloning for SDVO encoders."

Is that good enough for a full r-b?
