--- Comment #4 from Rene Engelhard <rene at debian.org> ---
I am not actually sure.. The LaTeX code is suboptimal to begin with.

\[
\int_1^2 \frac{3}{4} = 5
\]

works by chance since it's one command and because it's an integral and one
doesn't see the difference if the text is not covered by _int. Add a real big
\frac or whatever and you'll see the \int will not adapt to that size because
that "big thing" is not part of the \int.

a

\[
\sqrt \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{2}
\]

would also "work", unless you add more stuff after the fraction. You'll see
that the root only covers the \frac.

Strictly speaking,

\[
\int_1^2 {\frac{3}{4}} = 5
\]

would have been correct in LaTeX even.

Your faulty display then shows that this abiguity is then followed wrong. I
would assume that if you did {} the integral you would get the correct result
with bracketed { 3 over 4 }?
