Here's my rather crude solution:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq org-clock-in-hook 
      '(lambda ()
		(setq default-header-line-format '((" " org-mode-line-string " ")))))

(setq org-clock-out-hook 
      '(lambda ()
		(setq default-header-line-format nil)))

(setq org-clock-cancel-hook 
      '(lambda ()
		(setq default-header-line-format nil)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Works so far. Obviously, if I had already set
default-header-line-format, this solution would be no good.

I'll keep my fingers crossed.
