This is a bug in the current master branch of org-mode.  I'll identify
the commit that breaks it shortly and post that information as a
followup to this message.

The only reason I have :CLOCK: ... :END: in my 'N' notes entry is to
keep the clock table from aligning way over on the right with the :NOTE:
tag.  The other templates don't have tags assigned so clocking in puts
the clock drawer at a reasonable spot when creating the task.
I haven't actually tested if this is required by org-capture mode
but it was for remember mode.  My current capture templates were
converted from my remember templates.
