I cannot reproduce this in version 1.17.0.3.

** Description changed:

  I was experimenting with tables of different types (as documented at
  http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/demo/example9/pandocs-markdown.html)
  and I had a table like this:
  
-                          Aug 20     Aug 19  
-     -------------------- ---------  --------
-     Dollar rate           176.100    176.100
-     Trading volume (M$)      4.33       2.83
-     Bids                     4.44       3.01
-     Offers (M$)              4.33       2.83
+                          Aug 20     Aug 19
+     -------------------- ---------  --------
+     Dollar rate           176.100    176.100
+     Trading volume (M$)      4.33       2.83
+     Bids                     4.44       3.01
+     Offers (M$)              4.33       2.83
  
  This rendered fine, but for various reasons, I wanted to convert it to a
  pipe_table:
  
-     |                      | Aug 20  | Aug 19  |
-     |:---------------------|--------:|--------:|
-     | Dollar rate          | 176.100 | 176.100 |
-     | Trading volume (M$)  |    4.33 |    2.83 |
-     | Bids                 |    4.44 |    3.01 |
-     | Offers (M$)          |    4.33 |    2.83 |
+     |                      | Aug 20  | Aug 19  |
+     |:---------------------|--------:|--------:|
+     | Dollar rate          | 176.100 | 176.100 |
+     | Trading volume (M$)  |    4.33 |    2.83 |
+     | Bids                 |    4.44 |    3.01 |
+     | Offers (M$)          |    4.33 |    2.83 |
  
  This does not render correctly -- I had to backslash-escape the dollar
  signs to fix it.  I can guess how this happened, but this idiosyncratic
  detail of LaTeX math mode formatting should arguably not leak through to
  Pandoc (especially since you might want to render through something else
  than LaTeX which handles the backslashed dollar signs differently).
  
  I am attaching a simple test file in Markdown.  The command line I used
  was the simplest imaginable, pandoc -o tndoc.pdf tndoc.md
  
  I am only just beginning to learn to use Pandoc. If there is something
  more I should be including for diagnostics, please let me know.
