[O] [babel] sbe not working properly

[Karl Voit]

Hi!

I want to define a babel function named epoch2day which I am able to use in a
table to convert UNIX epoch times to Org-mode time stamps:

        #+NAME: epoch2day(epoch=1)
        #+BEGIN_SRC python :results output
        time = epoch
        import datetime
        strtime = str(time)
        datetimestamp = datetime.datetime.utcfromtimestamp(int(strtime[:10]))
        print datetimestamp.strftime('[%Y-%m-%d %a %H:%M:%S]')
        #+END_SRC
        
        #+RESULTS: epoch2day
        : [1970-01-01 Thu 00:00:01]

... this works so far. However, in a table I can't "overwrite" the default
value with a column value:

        |         epoch | day                       |
        |---------------+---------------------------|
        | 1262675465119 | [1970-01-01 Thu 00:00:01] |
        #+TBLFM: $2='(sbe epoch2day (epoch $1))

... but $2 should be: [2010-01-05 Tue 07:11:05]


On [1] I found another example:

        #+name: add1(x=1) :results silent
        #+begin_src python
        return x + 1
        #+end_src
        
        #+RESULTS: add1
        : 2
        
        | foo | bar | 3 | 2 |
        #+TBLFM: @1$4='(sbe add1 (x $3))
        
        #+CALL: add1(x=2)
        
        #+RESULTS: add1(x=2)
        : 2

So this simple example does not work either at my side[2].


What is my error? Or did I found a bug?

Thanks!
