For some reason this did not work
(it only traced the \HTMLset{VERBOSITY}{1}, so far as I can tell).
But running latex2html -verbosity 9, here's the relevant output
(after preamble):


*** Translating environments ***
IN-A {tex2html_wrap_inline 4}
$x$
,{tex2html_wrap_inline 4}
UNDEF-IN {tex2html_wrap_inline 4}:
$x$

CACHED: x;MSF=1.6;LFS=12;AAT:


IMAGE_PARAMS tex2html_wrap_inline4: ###########ALT="x$"#
LATEX {tex2html_wrap_inline}:
\begin{tex2html_wrap_inline}$x$\end{tex2html_wrap_inline}
LATEX {tex2html_wrap_inline}:
x$

IMAGE_CODE:{tex2html_wrap_inline 4}:
\lthtmlinlinemathA{tex2html_wrap_inline4}%
x$%
\lthtmlinlinemathZ


UNDEF_OUT {tex2html_wrap_inline 4}:
<tex2html_image_mark>#tex2html_wrap_inline4#

OUT-A {tex2html_wrap_inline 4}
<tex2html_image_mark>#tex2html_wrap_inline4#



Does this help isolate where the leading $ is lost?
I'm using Perl 5.005_03.
