The tex4ht utility produces OpenDocument format, where math is
represented in mathml. When loading an OpenDocument file, OpenOffice
translates the mathml code into an internal oomath format. The mathml
code produced by tex4ht for the given example is correct, and it
displays fine both under Mozilla and MSIE+MathPlayer. The behavior
of OpenOffice is incorrect.
A possible `solution' could have been for tex4ht to complement the
math in the OpenDocument code with oomath code, and by doing so help
with bugs within the OpenOffice engine. It is a task I unlikely to
work on.
I don't think this issue should be the concern of tex4ht or the debian
distribution. I hope before long it will be resolved within
OpenOffice.
