-clonevar- reports an error incorrectly:

. clonevar tpulmev = pulmev
(8070 missing values generated)

. clonevar tpulmev = pulmev
syntax is clonevar newvar = varname ...
r(198);

It should probably report that tpulmev already exists rather than its error statement (which isn't false, but is open to many interpretations).
