Ok, the problem was with a rule I had added to mark the interval from  
a single dollar sign to a newline as illegal, thinking that inline  
math is not allowed to go over one line. However this is not really  
true. What is not allowed is having two consecutive newlines inside a  
math environment, but I have not found a way to match that. So I just  
removed the rule, which means that an older problem concerning  
runaway dollar signs and what ends up being colored as math in that  
case.
