I've been trying more things over the past few days, to no avail. With 
PGF, I get the exact same problem: the TeX is not being interpreted.

Inspecting the output .tex, I see that Dia is explicitly quoting the $ 
into \$. Why? How do I simply ask it to *not* do that?

IIRC from using Dia once many moons ago, I could somehow specify from 
within Dia whether I wanted a certain text object to be rendered as TeX. 
However, I can no longer find such options anywhere.

(The problem with MetaPost seems to be that I cannot leverage the 
macros, etc. that are available from my TeX files. But anyway I imagine 
that the output wouldn't be any different given the above.)
