Don't listen to what he says: font-lock-add-keywords is not for use by
derived modes, so it's OK to use it if you put it in lisp-mode-hook, but if
you end up creating your own major mode by deriving from lisp-mode, you
should create your own font-lock-defaults value and your own
font-lock-keywords value (built from lisp-font-lock-keywords, of course).
