Does interest accrued on a judicial lien?
I always call it the 1111(b)(2) election so I don't forget about
1111(b)(1), which is a very unique provision and unique to ch 11.

I'm assuming the property has equity, but query how Section 506(b) operates
in a situation in which the creditor was under-secured on the petition date.

Yes, if the judicial lien is not avoided, it survives the bankruptcy and continues to accrue interest at the legal rate. See Songer v. Cooney, (1989) 214 Cal.App.3d 387 and Songer v. Bordan, 2002 WL 1904425, in which the appellate court affirmed renewal of the discharged judgment (with interest) to renew the judicial lien which survived the bankruptcy.
Think of it the same as a mortgage loan. The Note is discharged as a personal liability of the debtor, but the Deed of Trust survives. Of course we don't question that the mortgage lien continues to accrue interest at the Note rate.
