clone() doesn't clone the textarea's text value

Description
When calling clone() on an entire DIV that contains multiple textarea elements, the cloned textarea's returns blank on a call to .val(), while the original still returns the correct text on .val().
Here's some sample code to reproduce the problem (assume there are multiple DIV's on the page, each with multiple textareas with text in them).
jQuery("div").each(function(){
var clone = jQuery(this).clone(); console.log(jQuery(this).find("textarea").eq(0).val()); will output correct text
console.log(clone.find("textarea").eq(0).val()); will output blank
});
This was seen in Firefox 3.5 and IE8.
