Aigh!  Bug patch.  I shouldn't have used \count0 outside of grouping,
since it messes up the page number.  (Thud thud.  Sound of head banging
against desk.)  It's safe to use it, though, since the output routine
will not get activated while \count0 contains a funny value.

@x
\def\g@tisotope{\let\b@ck\relax\ifmmode\else$\let\b@ck$\fi
\afterassignment\g@tis@tope\count0=}
@y
\def\g@tisotope{\let\b@ck\relax\ifmmode\else$\let\b@ck$\fi
\bgroup\afterassignment\g@tis@tope\count0=}
@z

@x
\def\g@tis@tope{{}^{\number\count0}{\rm\the\@lement}\b@ck}
@y
\def\g@tis@tope{{}^{\number\count0}\egroup{\rm\the\@lement}\b@ck}
@z

% Is anybody out there?
