(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)

I think the conclusion here was that there isn't much that can be done
in general here -- minor modes aren't special here; removing all
"running code" when unloading a feature isn't really possible.  So I
don't think there's anything actionable in this bug report, and I'm
therefore closing it.
