I'm reading the section in 'Oddballs' in the tutorial at 
http://perso.wanadoo.fr/kodama/x361.html
So... Oddballs are objects that are not clonable (or shouldn't be at least). 
The tutorial says it as 'The objects that cannot be cloned are called 
oddballs, after the name of the prototype which implements the impossibility 
to clone.'.
But at the end of that same section, another fact is explained: The clone 
messages is available and it makes a clone that "doesn't work as expected".
So, are oddballs clonable or not ?
