Okay, some experimentation revealed this solution:

To display a paragraph of code which contains nested [=...=]
you can do it the "normal" way by enclosing it with [= =], leaving
a space before the opening [=, and follow every instance of a
closing =] with =][=
so you write

 [=
code text goes here
including nested [= code =]=][=
=]

after the opening [= the second [= will b eignored, but the following
=] indicates the end, so we need to follow it with another =] and
follow that with another opening [=, if you follow me. :) works!
Example on this page:

Wonder where to document this trick?
