Note that it is unlikely that Rybka is a clone because it has a 64 bit version but the suspect that every new strong program is a clone is because after the release of Fruit2.1 and Toga1.1 it is too easy to develop strong clones(see Ryan's Gambit Fruit that is clearly stronger than Fruit2.1 inspite of the fact that it is not tuned).
