In Pharo the preference accessor is called #allowUnderscoreAsAssignment in 
Squeak it's #prefAllowUnderscoreAssignments. The OB code uses the Pharo 
version, since OB is developed for Pharo. So there are three choices:
- add Compiler-tfel.175 to the Trunk
- rename the preference accessor in Squeak to #allowUnderscoreAsAssignment
- add a Squeak compatibility package for OB which implements this method 
as in Compiler-tfel.175
