Actually, this is harder than I thought; the relevant code is
hard-coded in lwlib/xlwmenu.c instead of in redisplay proper.  That
means it's non-trivial to communicate with Lisp.  To get rid of the
underlines in your own copy of XEmacs, you can comment out the
following code at line 973 of xlwmenu.c:

	  /* underline next character */
	  XDrawLine (XtDisplay (mw), window, gc, x - 1,
		     y + mw->menu.font_ascent + 1,
		     x + w - 1, y + mw->menu.font_ascent + 1 );

Untested, YMMV.
