the problem occurs in the output routine (when the page is built); some tracing all learns that while flushing the fig box takes place, the meaning of textunderscore is changed; so we need to restore this before hand; actually this problem should be solved differently, i.e. no redefinition at all; the problem is that findinf good solutions is not that easy because of "moments of expansion" 

fix (in core-fig.tex:)

\def\dodoplaceexternalfigure[#1][#2][#3][#4][#5][#6]%
  {\doifsomething{#3}% catches \defineexternalfigure dummies
     {\bgroup
\pushmacro\textunderscore
      \edef\textunderscore{\string_}% brrr, temp hack, still needed?
      \calculateexternalfigure[#1][#2][#3][#4][#5][#6]%
      \calculateexternalscreenfigure[#1][#2][#3][#4][#5][#6]%
\popmacro\textunderscore
      \box\foundexternalfigure
      \egroup}}
