I first ran into this bug with 1.3.5 on Linux and entered comments on a
similar bug reported previously:

http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=7779

It has never been fixed. Or better stated, it has never been completely
fixed. I suspect the "copy of styles" problem is caused by more than
one thing and some of them have been fixed, but not all.

In my case I was never able to figure out what exactly was causing the
"copy of style" to be generated. Pinpointing what actions make the
copies to appear would probably help the developers get to the bottom
of it.
