Actually in Emacs-CVS this was fixed: you can now use find-file-hook
without the `s', as god intended.

But it's still extremely poor style.
It should really be something like

   (define-derived-mode sablecc-grammar-mode java-mode "SableCC-Gram"
     "Major mode for SableCC grammar files."
     ;; We should do something here, but we can start by leaving things as they
     ;; are in java.
     )
   (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.grammar\\'" . sablecc-grammar-mode))
