Hi,

to see with a short recipe that there is something wrong, try this in
emacs -Q:

  (setq A-red_B-C
        '(:eval (concat "A" (propertize "B" 'face 'font-lock-warning-face) "C"))
        red_B
        '(:eval (propertize "B" 'face 'font-lock-warning-face)))
  
  (setq mode-name red_B) ;; works
  
  (setq mode-name A-red_B-C) ;; doesn't work
  
  (setq mode-line-format A-red_B-C) ;; works


Michael.
