A subtle bug with `define-derived-mode' I just met with
`change-log-mode'. The latter's definition goes as ...
(define-derived-mode change-log-mode text-mode "Change Log"
"..."
(setq left-margin 8
fill-column 74
...
...but in my .emacs I have:
(add-hook
'text-mode-hook
'(lambda () (setq fill-column 72)))
Consequently, my Change Log buffers have a `fill-column' of 72 which is
not really desirable. I obviously don't have any intention to check
which of the major modes I eventually use derive from text-mode and add
the appropriate hooks there.
Is it really useful/needed to delay the hook of the parent mode in a
derived mode until after evaluating the body?
