Then Archlinux is not that much out of date.

A good start would be to try outshine with emacs-lisp mode.
With your outshine config done, write a file like foo.el

,----
| ;;; 1st level header
| ;;;; Sum
| (+ 1 1)
| ;;;; Subtract
| (- 2 1)
`----

or

,----
| ;; * 1st level header
| ;; ** Sum
| (+ 1 1)
| ;; ** Subtract
| (- 2 1)
`----

and see if you got headline fontification and all the outshine
functionality.

If that works, its a message-mode problem.
If not, a genereal problem with your config.
