This actually works here too, thanks. But is this wrapping results block
'neutral', i.e. is its content treated just like raw Org syntax in all
situations? E.g. when I create a dblock from elisp, would

#+results:
#+BEGIN_RESULTS
 #+begin my-dblock
   (foo)
 #+end
#+END_RESULTS

be equivalent to

#+results:
 #+begin my-dblock
   (foo)
 #+end

in all cases?

However, the combo ':results raw replace' seems like the natural fit
when programmatically creating content in an Org file with a src_block
that might eventually be evaluated more than once. That it does not work
'as-is' seems too much of a surprise to not call it a bug (at least when
the manual does not mention it as special case).
