Okay, good to know I'm not crazy! The !X might not literally be a bug
but look like one because of your testing - since !M seems to not
release, it becomes the old font so the !X effectively switches to math
mode. For example, if I run your code in a fresh IDL8 session, "foo" is
correct, but if I run it again then it's wrong.
