Ah, now the problem appears. It says "No such language mode: mathematica-mode".

So there is a mismatch between the name mathematica (which I used as name in org-babel extension) and the name mma-mode (which is provided by mma.el). 

However, as auto-mode-alist suggests (where there is ("\\.m\\'" . mma-mode), and no entry with mathematica-mode), I still have no idea why org-edit-special looks for mathematica-mode instead of mma-mode.

What happen if you C-c ' on a .m block?
