OK - here's some actual research for a change. I was wondering what

(defvar org-state)

actually does, so I looked at the source code for defvar. It contains
this comment:

,----
|   else if (!NILP (Vinternal_interpreter_environment)
|          && !XSYMBOL (sym)->declared_special)
|     /* A simple (defvar foo) with lexical scoping does "nothing" except
|        declare that var to be dynamically scoped *locally* (i.e. within
|        the current file or let-block).  */
|     Vinternal_interpreter_environment
|       = Fcons (sym, Vinternal_interpreter_environment);
|   else
`----

so it seems to be only active *for that file*: you need "(defvar org-state)" in
each file that uses the variable.
