It seems we've had some regressions _after_
851a8f65e9a6b00b51f6a41f4c8f2ec2a797862b, I presume with the major mode
toggles, so font-locking has ceased to work properly.  One thing I see
is that the "warn" isn't a symbol in the new toggle mechanism, so it
errors out.  But even after that has been fixed it still doesn't work.

Why would we want to init the whole js-mode if we already know that we
don't want to use it?

All the best,
