VBoxManage clonehd --variant Split2G not working with VDI files

Description
VBoxManage clonehd xpBox clonedBox.vdi --variant Split2G --format VDI
returns successfully with the message
Clone hard disk created in format 'VDI'. UUID [...]
but it in fact creates a single file instead of multiple split files. I was running it with VirtualBox 4.0.4 under a Ubuntu Linux 10.10 host.

VDI doesn't support the Split2G variant. Only the VMDK format does. The command should probably fail instead of pretending success though.
