You need to install overlay-fix.el
ftp://cedet.sourceforge.net/pub/cedet/overlay-fix.el
or at http://cedet.sourceforge.net/ftpgate.shtml
For future reference, it is worth to take a look at the mail archives.
This problem has come up many times already and the answer can be found
in the archives.

> Gentle reader:

> When I say font-locking I'm referring to the highlighting in color of

>
> I tried moving jde-java-font-lock.el and removed its require from
jde.el
>
> I still get no font-locking.
>
> java-mode font locking works, as does emacs-lisp, shell, etc.
> in jde-mode all I get is java-doc (/** ... */) outside of classes.
> Occasionally, after using the wizard to import an interface the buffer
> will font-lock and stay that way, but just that buffer and I have
> never reliably.
>
> global-font-lock-mode is true in all buffers.
>
> I hope you can help, I moved from xemacs to get better functionality
> out of jdee but loosing font-locking is a big compromise.
