For my purpose I'm afraid \gdef isn't the solution. The following  
example demonstrates the problem. Have you any idea how to make it  
working to use the commands *if* defined in the environment quote?

===== 8>< =====
\documentclass{ltxdoc}
\newcounter{member}
\makeatletter
\newcommand*{\member}[2]{%
   \stepcounter{member}%
   \@namedef{name\Alph{member}}{#1}%
   \@namedef{prof\Alph{member}}{#2}%
   \printmember%
}
\newcommand*\showProf[1]{%
	\@nameuse{prof#1}%
}
\gdef\printprof{%
	\@nameuse{prof\Alph{member}}
}
\gdef\printname{%
	\@nameuse{name\Alph{member}}
}
\newcommand*\printmember{%
	\framebox{%
		No.\,\arabic{member}: \printname\ (\printprof)
	}%
}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
%\begin{quote}
\member{Bush}{President}
\member{Blair}{Prime Minister}
\member{Merkel}{Chancellor}
%\end{quote}
\noindent The professions of some of our members are \showProf{C}.  
Others are \showProf{A}.
\begin{itemize}
\item \showProf{B}
\end{itemize}
\end{document}

TIA and kind regards. Friedrich
