The answer is "YES". org-export-with-current-buffer-copy calls org-clone-local-variables which uses a regexp to detect buffer-local variables, but *org-babel-use-quick-and-dirty-noweb-expansion* is not detected, so it gets dropped. Solution add "\\*org-babel-use-.*dirty.*\\*\\|" or something like that to the regexp. Chuck
