I'm so stupid! Sorry, you're right - I totally misunderstood you. 
Somehow I thought you wanted to know how to access smarty 
variables from within templates - although the example was PHP-
code: if (...) instead of {if ...}.

Currently there is only one clean but circuitous way to access 
assigned Smarty vars in PHP scripts:

$vars = $smarty->get_template_vars();
if ($vars['var1'] == 'data') {
     // ...
}

Generally, one should avoid such situations by finishing all logic 
before assigning smarty vars or even before creating the smarty 
object.

Sorry for the inconvenience!!!
