  • I guess it's strongly related to Link with double-underscored word in URL renders incorrectly and Fail of markdown parser detected if '_ 's are used in a naked URL (the latter being status-declined). Commented Feb 20, 2013 at 21:21
  • As an aside: I wonder if formatting in alt-text is ever useful? Commented Feb 20, 2013 at 21:23
  • Given that the code renders properly in preview, just not after post, I would hope this is a very easy fix rather than one that would be declined. Commented Feb 20, 2013 at 21:23
  • @Arjan Sure. On any of the programming sites, a variable name with underscore separation could be part of an alt-text. But from the links you supplied, I understand that this bug also affects URLs themselves, not just alt-text: surely underscores in URLs should not be misrendered. Commented Feb 20, 2013 at 21:28
