Try:

<template name="list-item">
  <param name="context" select="false()">

  <li>
    <apply-template select=".">
      <with-param name="context" select="$context"/>
    <apply-template/>
  </li>
</template>

<template match="specific-item1">
  <param name="context"/>
  <variable name="real-context">
    <choose>
       <when test="$context">
          <value-of select="$context"/>
       </when>
       <otherwise>default value</otherwise>
    </choose>
  </variable>

  [..]
</template>
