Cause
As the error occured on an IBM AIX Instance, Customer has followed Note 1268210.1 and has set the LDR_CNTRL to the recommended setting via the .profile :

...
export LDR_CNTRL=MAXDATA=0x40000000
...

It has been identified, that this LD_CNTRL Setting has produced the failure - only during the adcfgclone.pl execution.
 
Solution
To get over this failure, please use following WORKAROUND :

1. Simply comment out the variable in your .profile (for example) :
 

# export LDR_CNTRL=MAXDATA=0x40000000

2. Start a new session (Shell) and rerun the configuration steps.
 

2.1 Log on to the target system as the APPS User
2.2 cd [COMMON_TOP]/clone/bin
2.3 perl adcfgclone.pl appsTier

3. Once successful, restore the variable to it's original setting, by enable the Setting in the .profile again :
 

export LDR_CNTRL=MAXDATA=0x40000000
