`define-derived-mode' does this by default:

| `:abbrev-table'

| `fundamental-mode-abbrev-table' if PARENT is `nil'. (Again,

`----
Maybe `message-mode' could use ":abbrev-table nil" instead of "(setq
local-abbrev-table text-mode-abbrev-table)". (Probably we need it for
compatibility with Emacs 21 and/or XEmacs.)
Bye, Reiner.
