bug#11953: 23.4; tex-mode does not fontify \url{foo/$(bar)} correctly

[Norman Ramsey]

   The latex-mode fontifier is not aware that the (nonstandard)
   \url{...} and \path{...} commands should have their contents treated
   as if verbatim.  Here's an example that sends fontification around
   the bend (key text on middle line):

          To fix this, remove the \url{sn9c102.ko} from where it appears in
          \url{/lib/modules/$(uname -r)}, 
          and install the appropriate \url{gspca-modules} package.

   N.B. The mode appears aware of the \url command but not the \path
   command.  The two commands are provided by the same package and they
   have similar semantics: the arguments may contain characters that are
   'special' to {\TeX}, but these characters are treated as if verbatim.
