I wouldn't say there is maths envy in analytical Phil.
Stuff like modal logic , ontology and descriptive logics , a large variety of para-logical systems and epistemically logical systems, etc are all philosophy proper.
Lots of professors have a background in maths, even continentals (e.g Husserl).
I think mathematical rigour is the holy grail but the objects of the philosophical world are often not easy to coerce into such a form hence the piecemeal visage.
