Re: Conversion of underbrace (to and from Word)

[John MACFARLANE <jgm-TVLZxgkOlNX2fBVCVOL8/A@public.gmane.org>]

This bug got fixed in texmath in February 2016.

If you compile your pandoc against the most recent version
of texmath, it should work.

Anyway, this will be fixed in the pandoc 2.0 binary
packages.  Or you can try (at your own risk) a binary
from pandoc-nightlies.
