Yes, what an evil message that one is :( Is there any way it could provide more feedback? Or can someone tell me how to embed double quotes in <math> tags? :)
Texvc works by giving a very short return code on stdout to indicate success or failure. It throws away the output from latex itself, there's no way to return it to MediaWiki. Rethinking that interface is probably the way to go.
As for double quotes, I'm not sure there's a way to do it. In TeX outside math mode it's just `` and ", but I don't think there's a way to get outside of math mode, or a way to generate those characters inside math mode using the whitelisted control codes.
