I agree. We use jsmath http://www.math.union.edu/~dpvc/jsMath/ to do
all our rendering in the notebook, so they would be the people to
contact about this.

I'm no TeX guru, but it looks like some configuration on your
computer is set up differently that what we're expecting. We don't
ship any TeX/LaTeX with sage, it uses whatever happens to be on your
system. You might want to look at the actual tex file, or
sage.misc.latex, to try and figure out what's going on.
