I would say that this is unsupported expected behaviour ;)
It is better not to use $ at all (except when using it as a dollar sign when
\asciimode is active).

A bit over-precise maybe, but while the first three are the same, the last line
is
actually very subtly different.
The first three lines are essentially this in TeX82 :
$math $text here$ math\hfill\break
while that last line is
$math \hbox{text here} math\hfill\break
