That is what I expect. I have 
(define-minor-mode american-minor-mode 
    nil nil nil nil
    (setq local-abbrev-table
          (if american-minor-mode
              american-minor-mode-abbrev-table)))

Now if in LaTeX (mayor) mode (which has its own local-abbrev-table)
I turn on the american mode, in my understanding the local-abbrev-table
of american minor mode should be first in the list. At least if I add an
abbrev (via flyspell) it is added to the amercian-minor-mode-abbrev-table
not to the latex-mode-abbrev-table.

If that is the case I would say yes to your question, but I am not sure
how to check that it is indeed the first in the list. (I only know it is «activated»)
