Thanks, Duff! Unfortunately, we're making PDFs to be distributed now, but it is good to know that better answers are not that far away.

FYI: MathML will be included in the next version of PDF (ISO 32000-2), which we hope to publish in 2011 (maybe 2012, I hope not). Once it's in PDF, I expect that ISO 14289 (PDF/Universal Accessibility) will require it.
