Align equal signs while including text over equalities

3

I understand how to align multiple equations, but how can I do this if I want to also have text over the equalities. For example:

It bugs me that the equal signs are no longer aligned. Here is my LaTeX:

$$
beginalign
p(textbfx mid mathcalD, alpha)
&= int p(textbfx mid boldsymboltheta) p(boldsymboltheta mid mathcalD, alpha) textd boldsymboltheta
\
&stackreltextEq 4= int p(textbfx mid boldsymboltheta) p(boldsymboltheta mid alpha') textd boldsymboltheta
\
&= p(textbfx mid alpha'). tag5
endalign
$$

Is there a solution to this?

align

  Off-topic: Encasing an align environment inside $$ ... $$ cannot possibly work correctly -- at least not as a LaTeX document. Please be more precise about you actually do.

  Fair point. I'm technically using MathJax, which requires this to work, but I should have edited it for the post.

Here I use mathclap to insure that the overstack takes up zero horizontal space.

Also, change the textbf instances to mathbf (thanks, Mico).

Finally, ditch the $$ delimiters.
