This is probably a lexical binding problem: org-state is supposed to be dynamically bound by org-todo and then used by org-clock-out-if-current, but it seems that the communication is lost. I'm not sure what the solution is (I haven't really followed the upstream discussion), but I wonder if adding (defvar org-state) in org.el, just before the (defun org-todo ... line is enough to resolve the problem (basically letting org-todo know that org-state is dynamically bound). Untested and possibly wrong. -- Nick
