OK - I think I know why: the mode of the temp buffer is set according
to the language in the begin_src construct: emacs-lisp-mode in one case,
message-mode (and a bunch of minor modes) in the other. The difference is
that the latter associates the buffer with a file, whereas the former does
not. It's that difference that makes kill-buffer behave differently.

I suspect that the thing to do is to mark the buffer unmodified. Here's a patch:
