$wgUseTeX is not needed in the extension. For backwards compatibility,
it's also set in /mediawiki/includes/DefaultSettings.php and used in
/mediawiki/includes/EditPage.php only.

The Math.body file which contains the MathRender class was split in the following way:
- Math.base contains the base class with the database related stuff and provides an abstract interface
- Math.source and Math.MathJax handle the plain tex string output. There are two classes since they
will differntiate in the future I think.
- Math.texvc contains the "old" implementation of png generation with all the file handling related stuff
- Other implementation of math renderer can be added in the same style.
- Cleanup to better follow coding conventions.
- Changed LockManager to 'fsLockManager'
The first attempt restructure the class layout and introduce LaTeXML at the same
time was dropped. Instead this was split up into two phases.
This commit only deals about the restructuring of the math module design.

* (bug 14202) $wgUseTeX has been superseded by the Math extension. To re-enable
math conversion after upgrading, obtain the Math extension from SVN or from
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Math and add to LocalSettings.php:
require_once "$IP/extensions/Math/Math.php";
This is an initial stab, and a few things remain to be cleaned up:
* messages need to be moved from core to extension
* MW_MATH_* constants should be moved to the extension from core
* old back-compat math names interfaces using those constants should be removed from message files
* classic edit toolbar's math button should be added from the extension (or else dropped) -- currently there's not a clean hook, but could do it by JS
* couple of things like the 'armourMath' function on Language & LanguageConverter may want to be redone just as an unconditional, if that's simpler.
Setting $wgUseTeX alone will no longer have any affect. The var's still there for the moment as a few bits still need to be fully moved out from core.
