If you're still having issues with direct assignment to a variable from a
macro, then your flex and bison stuff isn't working properly.

Also, I think you're misinterpreting the console output you've pasted.  If
you get the assignment to work properly, then the resulting value of the
variable will not have the quotes in it even though the call to Return and
the NoOp on GOTSUB_RETVAL show them.  Here's the output on my system using
your macro (name differently, but with the same contents:

    -- Executing [s at test-assignment:1] Gosub("SIP/test-00000002",
"test-assignment-macro,s,1(12345678)") in new stack
    -- Executing [s at test-assignment-macro:1] MSet("SIP/test-00000002",
"LOCAL(number)=12345678") in new stack
    -- Executing [s at test-assignment-macro:2] Set("SIP/test-00000002",
"LOCAL(xx)=123-456-78") in new stack
    -- Executing [s at test-assignment-macro:3] NoOp("SIP/test-00000002",
"123-456-78") in new stack
    -- Executing [s at test-assignment-macro:4] Return("SIP/test-00000002",
""123-456-78"") in new stack
    -- Executing [s at test-assignment:2] MSet("SIP/test-00000002",
"assignment="123-456-78"") in new stack
    -- Executing [s at test-assignment:3] NoOp("SIP/test-00000002",
"123-456-78") in new stack
