After starting emacs with "emacs -q", call (global-font-lock-mode 0) by 
hand, then visit a python file.  For me, it is font-locked.

When I call (global-font-lock-mode 0) in my .emacs.el, python mode isn't 
font locked.  But if I ever M-x python-shell, then files visited 
afterward will be font locked, even though global-ton-lock-mode's value 
is nil.  At this point I have to restart emacs in order to see anything.
