The main problem the old code solves is working around user error when
kill-ring is empty. We do not really want to err in such cases; just
handle empty kill ring specially.

I agree that (and kill-ring ...) condition misses the system clipboard.
The proper way to handle this issue is explicitly catching "Kill ring is
empty" error thrown by `current-kill' (i.e. `condition-case').

We have 3 occurrences of (and kill-ring (current-kill 0)) constructs in
the code and may fix the problem either by replacing each instance with
`condition-case' or we may create a separate macro/function in org-macs
and use it.
