emacs -nw -Q on Terminal.app, $TERM=xterm-256color

1. (display-supports-face-attributes-p '(underline t))
     => nil

2. C-h f context-menu-map RET
   => The separator line in *Help* in underlined, which
   means that term.c thinks that underlines can be used.

display-supports-face-attribute-p uses tty_capable_p in term.c.
This code in tty_capable_p looks wrong:

  TTY_CAPABLE_P_TRY (tty,
		     TTY_CAP_UNDERLINE,	  tty->TS_enter_underline_mode,
		     NC_UNDERLINE);
  TTY_CAPABLE_P_TRY (tty,
		     TTY_CAP_UNDERLINE_STYLED,	  tty->TF_set_underline_style,
		     NC_UNDERLINE);

It returns false as soon as it finds TS_enter_underline_mode is cannot
be used, and doesn't check TS_set_underline_style. The output code uses
one or the other

  if (face->underline && MAY_USE_WITH_COLORS_P (tty, NC_UNDERLINE))
    {
      if (face->underline == FACE_UNDERLINE_SINGLE
	  || !tty->TF_set_underline_style)
	OUTPUT1_IF (tty, tty->TS_enter_underline_mode);
      else if (tty->TF_set_underline_style)
	{
	  char *p;
	  p = tparam (tty->TF_set_underline_style, NULL, 0, face->underline, 0, 0, 0);
	  OUTPUT (tty, p);
	  xfree (p);
	}
    }
