Okay that doesn't work for me

I have the following setup for clocking phone calls which are started by
a remember template with :CLOCK-IN: in the text of the template

,----[ .emacs ]
| (add-hook 'remember-mode-hook 'my-start-clock-if-needed 'append)
| 
| (defun my-start-clock-if-needed ()
|   (save-excursion
|     (goto-char (point-min))
|     (when (re-search-forward " *:CLOCK-IN: *" nil t)
|       (replace-match "")
|       (org-clock-in))))
| 
`----

That breaks with org-clock-into-drawer set to 1 with the following error

,----
| org-clock-find-position: Wrong type argument: integer-or-marker-p, nil
`----

I don't have time to dig into this more right now so I've just reverted
back to the default for this variable.
