Here is a corrected patch that fixes the fact that closures passed to the
:tangle header were not being evaluated. Details in the commit message.
Best,

Subject: [PATCH] ob-tangle.el: restore :tangle closure evaluation before eval
 info

* lisp/ob-tangle.el (org-babel-tangle): check that :tangle is not no
before attempting to tangle a single block
(org-babel-tangle--unbracketed-link): new optional argument
info-was-evaled to control whether (cdr (assq :tangle params)) is
expanded via `org-babel-read'
(org-babel-tangle-collect-blocks): expand closures passed to :tangle
with `org-babel-read' so that blocks with :tangle closure that eval to
"no" will not incorrectly eval other parameters
(org-babel-tangle-single-block): src-tfile handle cases where output
of :tangle closure could be nil and conver to "no"

This patch fixes a bug where header arguments like :tangle (or "no")
were treated as if they were tangling to a file named "(or \"no\")".
As a result, org-bable would call org-babel-get-src-block-info with
'no-eval set to nil, causing parameters to be evaluated despite the
fact that when :tangle no or equivalent is set, the other parameters
should never be evaluated.

This patch also restores the original behavior of the :tangle header
argument when a closure returned nil, e.g. #+header: :tangle (or), by
using (or (cdr (assq :tangle params)) "no"). Without this the call to
`file-name-directory' in `org-babel-tangle--unbracketed-link' can fail
with a wrong-type-argument stringp nil error.
