In your use case, you can avoid line breaks using the @w command:
@deftypefun int f4 ()
@w{@math{@var{n} = -2}}.
@end deftypefun
If the @w ignored in math mode?

For PDF output, I want the spaces to be the usual ones that are
generated in math mode.
For TeX, Texinfo "@w{...}" is effectively TeX "\hbox{...}". The key to
Gavin's example is that the @math{} is the argument to @w{}. This
suppresses line breaks, but sets the expression in ordinary math mode,
so the spaces will be the normal math spacing. In plain TeX, that line
would be "\hbox{$\var{n} = -2$}" (assuming a \var macro as Texinfo
defines) if that helps.
