Mhhh, this does not work for me.

,----[ (info "(eintr)Note for Novices") ]

So, afaics C-u = Value of 4.

Some googling seems to suggest that an argument of '(4) works,
and it does for me:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun ab-org-clock-in-select ()
  (interactive)
  (org-clock-in '(4)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

or even shorter with a lambda

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(global-set-key (kbd "C-c C-g") (lambda () (interactive) (org-clock-in '(4))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

works here!

However, this faq [ (info "(efaq)Replying to the sender of a message") ]
seems to suggest that your version is the way to go.

...

I am confused.

However, this is org OT, so I'll finish my musings here :)
Go with whatever works for you.
