Thank you for testing this and providing 2 valid work-arounds.
Yes, named references do work in cond. formatting as well as in cell validation.
Both features take formulas without leading "=" with quoted strings, unquoted
addresses, numbers and names. 
Commonly used example: cell_value > MAX(other_range)

Your work-around with the "formula operator" does work. 
'Labels' can do the trick using both methods, formula=('Price'*'Count')>$D2 as
well as cell_value > 'Price'*'Count'.

The user who initiated the forum thread stumbled upon the fact that the latter
approach fails with named references. cell_value > Price*Count fails whereas
formula = (Price*Count)>$D2 works as expected, so there is a bug indeed. Without
having tried, I'd think that Excel would handle this as expected.
