This would seem to indicate that the syntax-table of the major-mode in
effect has marked the underscore character with "symbol syntax"
(denoted confusingly enough by an underscore character,
in the `C-u C-x =' help).

Such a setting is appropriate is "delta_x" is one identifier, but not if
it's supposed to be 3 elements (identifier "delta", infix "_", and
identifier "x").

So, is this setting correct (i.e. does your language treat "delta_x" as
a single identifier, and you're trying to prettify subparts of
identifiers)?
