I'm going to give the response that nobody likes, but why have the parameter for the .sdc in the .qsf? Why not just put it into the SDC? I say that because I've seen many .sdc files with variables/parameters, and they all do it in the .sdc. Just want to make sure you're not hitting a wall trying something that's never been tried before. (To be honest, I didn't think parameters were even supposed to be readable from the .sdc, and impressed you made it as far as you did...)
