That contains a newline char.  See what I
wrote in my previous mail.

With info+.el, using the default value of
option `Info-emphasis-regexp' ("_\(\sw+\)_"),
that text is also not highlighted.

But if you change the option value to this
one (mentioned in the doc string) then the
text is highlighted as you'd expect:
"_\(\sw+\(\s-+\sw+\)*\)_".

However, with that regexp you'll encounter
problems with other occurrences of `_'.

There's no single silver bullet for this.
That's why my approach was to try to make
it easy for users to tailor the behavior
to what they want, and to easily change it
any time. 

My suggestion is to try a given regexp value
and then peruse a manual (different manuals
can present different challenges).  (I've
visited zillions of nodes in Emacs and Elisp
manuals, to see the effects.)
