Is this with the new exporter? I tried the old one just now, and it did this
correctly in both cases….

AFAIU, the OP is not talking of export, only of how it's visible in the Org

It's true that the equation is not shown as it should (in this case) because
`*' are interpreted as bold markers.

Indeed, it is wrongly showed in the emacs buffer, before exporting. FYI,
I'm use org-mode 7.8

Ah, OK. Sorry for the Noise. Difficult to fix, this would require a better

One work-around would be to use \ast for the star..

Thanks. I forgot to mention that it also wrongly parsed when exporting to
html at my place.
