Here's one (rather less elegant than Christian's CSS magic) way
that preserves the HTML behavior:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+author: Christian Moe
#+title: Side by side code blocks
#+style: <style>pre.src {display: table-cell;}</style>

How to say hello in two languages:

#+LaTeX: \begin{minipage}[t]{2.5in}
#+begin_src perl :results output
   # Perl
   sub say_hello {
       print "Hello, world";
   }

   say_hello;
#+end_src
#+LaTeX: \end{minipage}\begin{minipage}[t]{2.5in}
#+begin_src python :results output
   # Python
   def say_hello():
       print("Hello, world")

   say_hello()
#+end_src
#+LaTeX: \end{minipage}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Anybody for ODT? while preserving the HTML and LaTeX behavior? :-) BTW,
I use minted - I hope it works with listings but I have not tried it.
