Aloha Mike,

It looks like your source block and results are indented.  IIRC, that's
not a good thing.

This might work better:

#+name: gauland-eg
#+HEADER: :results output raw
#+HEADER: :exports results
#+BEGIN_SRC R
  library(xtable)
  library(ascii)
  print(ascii(xtable(matrix(c(1,2,3,4),nrow=2,ncol=2))),type="org")
#+END_SRC

#+results: gauland-eg
|   |    1 |    2 |
|---+------+------|
| 1 | 1.00 | 3.00 |
| 2 | 2.00 | 4.00 |

Then you can let the new exporter do the work of making the LaTeX export
look nice. This has the (possible) advantage that it also exports to the
other back ends, not just LaTeX.

hth,
Tom
