I wouldn't care about the spaces and I would prefer not to use latex.
The problem is that that produces:

\texttt{<<<} \ldots{} \texttt{>>>}

and then latex joins the first << and the first >> together, which is
really ugly.

My document is already LaTeX specific, but if I'm able replace more
latex with org mode, I should consider a later edition of the tex
produced to keep it backend-independent. Not critical for this
document, but it is always cool to be able to export to different
formats.

Thank you for the suggestion, anyway.
