Thank you for the suggestion, but I'm afraid it does not do what I want:
I cannot pass a different argument 'z' to test2 (called test4 in the
following snippet):

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+name: z
: "bar"
#+name: test3
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var x="foo"
x
#+end_src

#+name:test4
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var y=test1(x=z)
y
#+end_src

#+results: test4
: "bar"

#+call: test4(z="BAZ")

#+results:
: "bar"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

In this case, org-sbe works great, and I've been able to achieve what
I want. I still need to clean it up before describing it to the list.

Thanks again,

Alan
