Minor bug in org export to latex

I find that a mathmode environment, bounded by $..$, that breaks across
line boundaries, is not typeset correctly.

I am attaching a minimal example org-file.

Best,

* Here is a good example

$(1 - \nu)$

* Here is a bad example

When I type a lot of text in front of the mathmode so that the mathmode breaks
across a line boundary, I find that it is not typeset properly as here: $(1 
- \nu)$

It's not a bug.

It just happens to work most of the times.  Use \(.\) when in doubt.

but

 $(1
    x -\nu)$

would work.  -/+ is being picked up because it starts a list.

Hope this helps,
Rasmus
