[1] 
emacs -q -no-site-file 
Load a file ~/vv.el containing:
====================================================
(easy-mmode-define-minor-mode
 vv-mode "The mode to inherit minibuffer keybindings"
 nil "dfdf")

(provide 'vv)
====================================================
M-x unload-feature vv

now, the variable vv-mode is either defined or undefined, depending on
whether unload-feature recognized it.  I guess Both would be fine, as
unload-feature "does its best" and is not a "guarantee".

But the problem is that things are worse.  Emacs seems to have entered
a strange state wrt the variable vv-mode.   To see this M-x load-file
~/vv.el, now vv-mode should be defined. So,  M-: vv-mode to get this
backtrace
,----
| Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable vv-mode)
|   eval(vv-mode)
|   eval-expression(vv-mode nil)
|   call-interactively(eval-expression)
`----
====================================================

I then appended a (defvar vv-mode nil) to the beginning of vv.el and
went through the entire procedure above, and got the same error.
