    Message mode calls `mail-abbrevs-setup' to set up the abbrev stuff.
    That's the standard function from mail/mailabbrev.el.  (I haven't
    checked whether that package also inherits from
    `text-mode-abbrev-table'.)

Mailabbrevs is something different; those abbrevs use a special abbrev
table.

Message mode ought to use text-mode-abbrev-table for its ordinary
abbrev table.  It should set local-abbrev-table to text-mode-abbrev-table.
