This is done in `hack-one-local-variable' where
(funcall mode)
simply executes `font-lock-mode' which toggles font-lock mode off since
it does not get an argument.

Look at the value of `font-lock-keywords' in this buffer - it's probably
(t nil). You should modify this either by setting `font-lock-defaults'
or via `font-lock-add-keywords' or `font-lock-remove-keywords'.
