The light is just an indication that there is an abnormal drain on the alternator. If it goes out and stays out, I would not worry. If it stays on, or comes on as you are driving, then it is the alternator failing (like when I borrowed yoon's truck that one day...)
The clutch disc itself cannot freeze, but the clutch master/slave bore can contract and make the piston harder to move, but it would have to get VERY cold for that to happen. More than likely it's trans fluid geting so thick, it actually keeps the gears in. THis happened on a few of my less-maintained winter ponys, wherein you would take the car out of gear, and release the clutch (it's in neutral now) and it would briefly start to travel in the direction of the last gear... once it took me backwards into a shopping cart, which gained speed down the hill, and hit a parked civic very hard.
So be warned!
