OK - I can never remember the meaning of all the results permutations
but replace does reverse the result of silent (I don't care about export
in this case).

Thanks for the reference - I obviously need to re-read this a few times.

Not a bug. See below.

The ECM is as follows:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
#+PROPERTY: header-args :results silent

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
;; this one is silent
(setq foo "bar)
#+END_SRC

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp :results output
;; this one is being outputted
(princ "foo")
#+END_SRC
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

The second code block *should* output "foo" as its result, but it does
not: the :results silent header in the property seems to be in conrol.


Maybe you meant

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp :results output replace :exports both
;; this one is being outputted
(princ "foo")
#+END_SRC


i.e. export code and results and replace the existing result or insert a 
new result.


See (info "(org) results") and scroll down to the 'Handling' paragraph.
