testcase

This is another case for bug 156839: I think we should follow Gecko here and reset font-style on the <math> tag.

Jacques Distler reported the following issue on the instiki Sandbox: "In Theorem 2, the absolute-value signs are slanted. I assume this is because the <math> has inherited the italics style of the surrounding text. But this looks wrong.". Actually the whole text is slanted but most noticeable with the absolute value signs. See the attachment.

The patch LGTM but do we need such a big test case? Is not enough a simpler one to reproduce the issue? :-)
