latex export: document fails to compile

[asdfsadfmcxdfsa]

create a new empty org-mode file containing this text

* test
$\text{asdf}$

export to latex, build pdf from tex

error

ERROR: Undefined control sequence.

--- TeX said ---
<recently read> \text 
                      
l.38 $\text
           {asdf}$
--- HELP ---
TeX encountered an unknown command name. You probably misspelled the
name. If this message occurs when a LaTeX command is being processed,
the command is probably in the wrong place---for example, the error
can be produced by an \item command that's not inside a list-making
environment. The error can also be caused by a missing \documentclass
command.

This is a bug?

IIRC, \text command is defined in amsmath package. Do you require it in
your header?
