Subject: unexpected appearance of x^2 in pdf file

Dear list,

I may be under a misapprehension, but I expected the pdf output
(created by C-c C-e l p) from the attached org file to show similar
results for both lines.  Instead, however, the simple

  x^2

outside of the verbatim environment puts the caret above the 2 even
though I have set

  #+OPTIONS: ^:nil

This seems to be because org-mode exports x^2 as x\^2 in the tex file.
 I think exporting it as x\^{}2 would give a better result.  Is there
another way to get the appearance I'm looking for without using the
verbatim environment?

Thanks for your advice,

Paul

PS. I'm using Emacs 24.2.1 with Org mode 8.0.2.
