i solved it like this:

python:request.set('compname',options['compname'])
and then accessed it as
request['compname']

from what i can see, the end script called is a recursive script and 
for some reason, it only works if the variable comes from 'request'
 and not from 'options'. I am going to make the simplest example of a 
recursive script and see if this hypothesis is correct. will revert
