I prefer the latter. Maybe the mode function will never be called.
For example, it makes it possible to remove (require 'generic) from
generic-x.el. So you can just load generic-x.elc to define a bunch of
major modes (and add them to auto-mode-alist) and generic.el will only
be loaded when you actually use one of them.
Why do you prefer adding (require 'generic)?
generic is a tiny file. (generic-x is the large one.)
Sincerely,
Luc.
