http://test.wikipedia.org/ contains math extension to Wikipedia.
It is possible to write math markup with <math></math>
and it will be converted to nice PNG. Markup is more or less LaTeX+AMS.

Please test it.

Some error reporting has been added.

Oh, and for translators.
The following messages should be translated:
(preference page):
    "Rendering math"
    "Aways render PNG"
    "Try HTML first, fallback to PNG if too complex"
    "Leave it as TeX (for text browsers)"

What looks like:
=== Rendering math ===
(*) Aways render PNG
( ) Try HTML first, fallback to PNG if too complex
( ) Leave it as TeX (for text browsers)

(errors)
    "Failed to parse"
    "unknown error"
    "unknown function "
    "lexing error"
    "syntax error"

What looks like:
    Failed to parse (syntax error): ^_^
    Failed to parse (unknown function \elephant): \elephant^2 = \mouse
