Hi Rainer,

You are very close, the problem is that the code block whose header
argument initiates the tangling should not itself be tangled, otherwise
you will wind up with the infinite recursion error you've noticed.

A setup like the following should work...

** tangle before evaluating a code block

#+begin_src sh :var TANGLED=(org-babel-tangle) :tangle no
  wc $TANGLED
#+end_src

#+results:
: 2  2 11 it.sh

#+begin_src sh :tangle it.sh
  echo TEST
#+end_src
