And, in further observation, the mailabbrev.el also sets the syntax
table to mail-mode-syntax-table.  So, neither message-abbrev-table nor
message-mode-syntax-table are being used, except for the first few
proper keystrokes in the body.

Some would call this a bug.  Others, an unfortunate collision of
message-mode trying to completely override mail-mode.

How to resolve?
