    If someone else wants to do that, I can't prevent it, but spreading the code
    like this just in the hope to avoid a few KB in the default build (most
    people will load newcomment.el sooner or later since it's loaded as soon as
    you hit M-; or use auto-fill-mode or ...), is just a waste of time IMNSHO.

Why does auto-fill-mode load newcomment when used in Text mode?
That seems like a bug, since Text mode has no comment syntax.
