To put this in bin/mahout speak, this would look like, munging some names and 
taking liberties with the actual argument to be passed in:

bin/mahout svd (original -> svdOut)
bin/mahout cleansvd ...
bin/mahout transpose svdOut -> svdT
bin/mahout transpose original -> originalT
bin/mahout matrixmult originalT svdT -> newMatrix
bin/mahout kmeans newMatrix

Is that about right?
