OK, sorry for spamming the list, but here's what I established (with
the help of Edebug).  The problem is with org-heading-components; for
some reason, the variable org-complex-heading-regexp is nil when
running that function.  This variable is buffer-local, and it seems
that (somehow) the value org-clock-in sees is nil.  A further
inspection shows that the (current-buffer) is (at that time) *not* the
one jumped to by org-open-at-point-global.  Anyone knows why that is
so?

BTW, I've just discovered org-open-link-from-string, so that I'll be
able to simplify my code a bit.

Best,
