What means `default' here? 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.

Cheers
