Symptoms:

I have in my .emacs

(setq default-major-mode 'text-mode)
(require 'table)
(add-hook 'text-mode-hook 'table-recognize)

My problem is that table-recognize is not evaluated when a file is
visited whose mode is text-mode only because of the value of
default-major-mode (e.g., a file named `foo'). When I put
;; -*- mode: text; -*- in the first line of the file, tables are
recognized as expected. (I can always run table-recognize by hand.
But why is it not run when it is part of text-mode-hook?)
