It was brand new in Emacs-21.

Yup, that one was marked obsolete in Emacs-22.

Because, even though it started as a minor-mode (like lazy-lock), it's
not a minor mode any more. It's a library that can optionally be used
by font-lock and by other packages (nlinum.el, nhexl.el, and
glasses-mode).

Yes and no: it doesn't know how to parse languages with a syntax more
complex than Lisp's, but it does know how to parse most language's
comments, parentheses, and strings.
