I'm setting it to 'Bellcore-dr1' through 'Bellcore-dr4'.  I'm grabbing 
the value out of Asterisk's database and sticking it into ALERT_INFO 
like this:

[macro-setalertinfo]
   exten => s,1,DBGet(ALERT_INFO=distinctivering/${CALLERIDNUM})

Works fine for me.  You should also be able to do 
'SetVar(ALERT_INFO=Bellcore-dr1)' without problems.  Can you show us 
the line that's generating errors?
