I'd expect this to be call-test()
                               ^^
But it works for me with both call-test and call-test().

quick test on my setup with Org-mode version 8.2.4 (release_8.2.4-332-g7059d3):

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+NAME: test
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
echo a b c
echo 1 2 3
echo 4 5 6
#+END_SRC

#+results: test
| a | b | c |
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| 4 | 5 | 6 |

#+NAME: call-test
#+CALL: test() :results table :colnames yes

#+results: call-test
| a | b | c |
|---+---+---|
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| 4 | 5 | 6 |


#+NAME: r-test
#+HEADER: :var data=call-test
#+HEADER: :colnames yes
#+BEGIN_SRC R
data
#+END_SRC

#+results: r-test
| a | b | c |
|---+---+---|
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| 4 | 5 | 6 |
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Are you sure about your '#+RESULT' ?

The default value for org-babel-results-keyword seems to be 'RESULTS'
with an 'S'.

(I have customized that to be lower case 'results'.)
