It would be more interesting to know what version of AUCTeX you are
using... It is likely a problem with syntax highlighting which you
can turn on and off with
M-x font-lock-mode RET
Maybe AUCTeX thinks that math mode starts somewhere in your document
and never ends. Putting a %$ comment in might help.
In any case, it would be worth reporting this bug with
M-x TeX-submit-bug-report RET
if you find that you are using a recent enough version of AUCTeX. YOu
can check with
C-h v AUCTeX-version RET
11.83 is the current one.
