John Hendy, answered my question off-list, presumably unintentionally
(sorry about my forwarding parts of your mail, if that assumption is
wrong), so here's my answer to that which I also forgot to send to the
list. The solution / workaround was to use `\(n\)th' instead.

I tried all combinations of those two options, but it made no
difference. I also tried LaTeX:verbatim, but that didn't help either.

All of those work fine. It really seems to be the lack of a space
afterwards that triggers $ being escaped.

That works, thank you!

Nevertheless, I'd still be interested if anyone
has a way to disable this escaping behavior completely.

Cheers,
