I haven't played with it, but since -- to the best of my understanding,
MathML isn't intepreted correctly by AT -- I'd suggest using XSLT to
transform the output appropriately into, for example, HTML for
screenreaders.
I don't know enough about how math symbols should be rendered for
blind users to do this myself. How do blind users prefer to "read"
mathematical notation? That would be the key to understanding how to
create the proper MathML -> HTML transformation via XSLT.

He is blind and was part of the MathML working group.
