I wasn't clear. By "naming the results", I mean that you must provide
your source block a "#+NAME: something" attribute, so the generated
table gets a "#+RESULTS: something" attribute.

BTW, you mustn't change `org-babel-results-keyword'. I don't even know
why this is a defcustom and why it is allowed to turn it into "NAME".
RESULTS refers to the name of the src-block which produced the current
element, whereas NAME refers to the name of the current element. Their
purpose is completely different.

Cc'ing Eric Schulte about it.
