That's what I suspected. You could try to wrap this line in an
#+begin_export latex block (as I suggested), then it will be within the
document instead of in the preamble.

I usually refrain from using AtBeginDocument hooks (Gustavo Barros'
suggestion) because I do not know enough about them, so I rather add the
commands to a place I can see ;-)

Hm, src-block? I would have thought you should wrap that in an
export-block, so those commands get added to the exported document, not
quoted within as a source code. That would mean

#+begin_export latex
\newlength\mytextheight\makeatletter\setlength\mytextheight{\beamer@frametextheight}\makeatother
#+end_export

HTH,
Julius
