AFAIS exist mode-abbrev-tables and a global-abbrev-table. What you describe should not happen. However, encountered it too, without beeing able to locate the reasons. Seems if, while closing Emacs the question `save abbrevs` is answered `yes` sometimes only the mode abbrevs are saved, the rest deleted. Probably a bug. To avoid this I proceed as following before closing: M-x edit-abbrevs C-c C-c M-x write-abbrevs Afterwards question `save abbrevs` is answered with _no_ Also I've .abbrev_defs under RCS.
