Nonetheless, the behaviour does not change.  Either with your patch:
-          (font-lock-eval-keywords keywords))
+          (font-lock-eval-keywords (or keywords font-lock-keywords)))

or without, the behaviour is the same.  Specifically:

- if I remove the "mode: font-lock" line from the local variables, no
  fontification is done
- else, if "mode: font-lock" is there:
  + if I use font-lock-keywords I get the above message
  + if I use font-lock-defaults I get fontification and no messages
