What is your orgmode version (paste the output of `M-x org-version`)? I
decided to just give a whirl with a minimal config and I don't think that
Org 8+ asks for allowing bind keywords anymore, or at least it isn't asking
me with 8.0.7. From my tinkering, it looks like it ignores them or you need
to explictly allow them:

M-x customize-variable RET org-export-allow-bind-keywords RET

Hide Org Export Allow Bind Keywords: Toggle  on (non-nil)
    State : CHANGED outside Customize.
   Non-nil means BIND keywords can define local variable values. Hide
   This is a potential security risk, which is why the default value
   is nil.  You can also allow them through local buffer variables.

I could be wrong, but the "toggle" button (vs. stating possible values)
implies that it's either on or off.

Actually, in just searching now, it seems that this is, indeed, the case
since 8.0.3:

http://orgmode.org/Changes.html#sec-1-5-1

In any case, I am now using this for my minimal config and it works
successfully:

#+begin_src

;; change path to point to your org/lisp directory
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.elisp/org.git/lisp/")

(setq org-export-allow-bind-keywords t)

(defun mapcdi-org-latex-headline-function (todo todo-type priority text
tags)
 "The docstring of my function."
 (concat
  (and todo (format "{}" todo))
  (and priority (format "{} " ))
  (and text (format "{\\vspace{-\\baselineskip}}" ))
  (and tags
       (format "\\hfill{}\\textit{}" (mapconcat 'identity tags ":")))))

#+end_src

And this is the file I'm using (I removed anything non-essential to
eliminate other possible causes):

#+begin_src

#+options: num:nil
#+bind: org-latex-format-headline-function
mapcdi-org-latex-headline-function



* headline 1

blah blah blah.

* headline 2

blah blah blah

* headline 3

A couple of separate paragraphs to see how far apart two paragraphs would be
normally. We'll add enough to line break just to make it interesting.

#+end_src


I attached a screenshot of the result!


Let me know if that helps,
