When I clone issue X-1, a new issue X-2 gets created.
I expect the relation ship to say "X-1 is cloned by X-2", and "X-2 clones X-1" (i.e "the new issue is a clone of the older issue"), but Jira creates the relationship in the other direction.
Having installed JIRA (v4.4.2#662-r164433), I still have the same problem. First installed version was as far as I remember 3.13. Then upgrades have been made.

It looks like it was fixed for new installations but not for upgraded ones.
I have never seen JIRA from the database perspective, but I think that best solution is to invert the link names (like Eric suggested) and then fix old links. For the fix we could quite safely assume that issue with greater id/key clones the one with lower id/key.
