           * emacs-lisp/easy-mmode.el (define-global-minor-mode): Use
           `after-change-major-mode-hook' instead of `find-file-hook'.

   See another message of mine in this thread.

I guess `define-global-minor-mode' could use both
`after-change-major-mode-hook' and `find-file-hook', although unless
special care is taken, that could mean that the hook function is run
twice.

But that would not eliminate the need for modes to run
`after-change-major-mode-hook' at their end.  The code before I
changed it failed if the mode was run from a timer or by a process.

The fallback for modes that do not use `after-change-major-mode-hook'
yet is post-command-hook.  Even without `after-change-major-mode-hook'
things should work out OK if you do `M-x org-mode' or visit a file
with `C-x C-f'.  I believe that the only problems should be modes run
from timers or processes.

Sincerely,

Luc.
