Thanks for sharing this example.  It indicated two bugs in the existing
code base.  I've just pushed up fixes for both bugs, the attached
Org-mode file can be used to confirm that this is now working.

#+Title: foo

A buffer in which we want =foo= to be run when called interactively
from /any/ call line, but to only be run by a single call line on
export.  Ensure this works by executing this buffer to html while
tracking =foo-called.times= with =tail -f /tmp/foo-called.times=.

#+NAME: foo
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :var id="foo"
  echo "called by $id at $(date +%s.%N)" |tee -a /tmp/foo-called.times
#+END_SRC

This will *not* be run on export.
#+call: foo[:eval no-export]("bar")

This *will* be run on export.
#+call: foo("baz")

The reason this second option doesn't work is that there is currently no
positive argument to the :eval header argument, rather it can only be
used to *inhibit* evaluation.
