In short:

1) All the options you need to authenticate/etc the SNMPv3 USM user
   *making* the request need to go before the USM command (eg, like
   "clone").

2) All of the options that affect the command itself and tell it how to
   set the password for the user you're operating *on* need to go after
   the command.

This allows for separation of the user being acted upon from the user
performing the maintenance.
