That's expected: with `:results raw', org-babel does not know where
the results end, since there is no marker, so it cannot clear them
before producing the new results  - it just puts them right after the
`#+RESULTS:' line.

Why are you using `raw'? Can you use some other format (e.g. `drawer'
or `example') instead?
