There is an easy edit to fix it.
Within the subroutine block:    sub extract_captions {
make the following edit (twice) :

 	if ($eline =~ /\\(old)?contentsline/) {
                   ^^^^^^ ------  insert this optional chunk!

Now those caption lines will be treated as intended, so that the mathematics
is converted the same way as it would be within the body of the document.


Hope this helps.
