Really weird `disabled-command-hook' bug

So I was trying to disable disabled commands; they're great for novices, but a bloody annoyance to me. So I tried sticking a new function onto `disabled-command-hook'. It didn't work; it wasn't called at all. Eventually, in desperation, I tried sticking the code from novice.el's `disabled-command-hook' (which I knew worked, annoying though it was) in there --- and *it* wasn't called. Yet call it `disabled-command-hook' and bingo. I profess puzzlement. -- `Perhaps you should have asked Santa for your program as a Christmas present.' --- Terran Melconian
