Hi Andrew, I'm assuming here that you are converting from another format to DXF.
The writer ignores DXF_INLINE_BLOCKS; this configuration option is only used by the reader. To create blocks, you must place the features that will compose the block on the "blocks" layer. (Clearly the format that you are converting from must support multiple layers.) Be sure to use the Block field instead of BlockName in GDAL 2.3+. Then, on the "entities" layer, place POINT geometries, with the Block field likewise set, at the positions where you want the block to be inserted.
