Does enclosing the text inside underscores (_like this_) not work?

Also, I'm looking at `doc/org-manual.org' from git, as of commit 4611c2b, and it
doesn't seem to use underlining. When I search for `ditaa', I don't see any
special markup around instances of the word.

What is org-underline? I don't seem to have that function in my org-mode (main
branch, as of the commit listed above). Using org-emphasize with the underscore
character seems to work as expected as well.

As a final thought, does your Emacs have the org-fontify-emphasized-text
variable set to nil? That would explain the behavior you're seeing, as the
underscores would appear before and after the text to be underlined, but the
underlining itself would not take place. Do you see similar behavior with *bold*
or /italic/ text?
