After another evening of flailing, I managed to make this work in a rather inelegant way:
In "myPageTemplate.jsp", I added this tag:
<tiles:importAttribute name="foo" scope="request"/>
and I changed "myBodyImpl.jsp" to say:
foo = <%= request.getAttribute("foo") %>
This works, but I'mnot very happy with it. Does anyone have a better solution?

i tried this, and got the following error in my jsp:
Error - tag.getAsString : attribute 'foo' not found in context. Check tag syntax'
I had to change the tag to say
<tiles:getAsString name="foo" />
since attribute is not an attribute of getAsString.

Sneaky little issue on this one. Try the following...
in tiles-defs.xml change <definition name="myTilesPageDef" path="myPageTemplate.jsp"> to <definition name="myTilesPageDef" template="myPageTemplate.jsp">
and in myBodyImpl.jsp change foo = <tiles:insert attribute="foo" /> to foo = <tiles:getAsString attribute="foo" />

How do I access the value of a tiles setting from a JSP that is inserted into a template? For instance, in the following scenario, I want a rendering of "myTilesPageDef" to say "<b>foo = bar</b>", but it just says "<b>foo = </b>". I've tried some ugly hacks, which in addition to be ugly, didn't work.
Help!
Thanks,

tiles-defs.xml:
<definition name="myTilesPageDef" path="myPageTemplate.jsp"> <put name="body" value="myBodyImpl.jsp" /> <put name="foo" value="bar" type="string" /> </definition>
myPageTemplate.jsp:
<b><tiles:insert attribute="body" /></b>
myBodyImpl.jsp:
foo = <tiles:insert attribute="foo" />
