This doesn't make sense, I think. font-lock-support-mode is a function,
and if a user has this set to a non-existent function, the correct
response is surely to tell her with an error message, rather than
executing a different function.
The only reason anybody nowadays would set f-l-s-m to 'fast-lock-mode
would be for debugging. Let's not make that debugging any more
difficult than it already is.
