org-capture-template :clock-in property not working

After recently upgrading to 20161118, I notice that the clock-in property
in my org-capture-templates is no longer functioning.  It appears to
successfully clock me out of my current task, but that's it.

My capture template is:

(setq org-capture-templates
      '(("t" "Todo" entry (file "/org/refile.org")
"* TODO %?\n%U\n" :clock-in t :clock-resume t)))

I'm running Emacs 25.1.1 on Windows.

FWIW I cannot reproduce it, i.e., clock is properly started.

I did a little more digging.  I too can get it to work correctly, so long
as there is no Default Clock task identified.

However, if I create a default clock task, it appears that the :clock-in
property is ignored.

I'll try to dig into it a little more, but I can reproduce it every time
when there is a default clock.

Thanks again for looking at it.

I believe I found my issue.

It appears I had a hook upon clockout that was causing issues.  So sorry to
bother everyone.

On the plus side, I learned some lisp debugging skills.

Thanks again.
