You can just get a font that doesn't have that character remapped. 
There are several ways to do this:

* to get antialiased Truetype fonts, use the TrueTypeTextStyle package 
(which is on SqueakMap and also in the 3.6b image)

* to get non-antialiased TrueType fonts on Windows, use the 
Win32Truetype fonts (or whatever it's called; SqueakMap seems to be 
down again).

* to use the free fonts that are part of the XWindow distribution, 
there is another package on SqueakMap.

As far as I know, none of the above packages edits the underscore 
character.

The stock Squeak fonts and the Accufonts both substitute a left-arrow 
glyph.
