Emacs 19.26.

I tried to dump an emacs including font-lock.  It failed during the
dump saying "Can't fontify on an ASCII terminal".

Appended is a patch to font-lock.el that fixes the problem.  I'm not
sure if this patch is optimal or not.  It is fine is faces are ever
going to be supported on ttys.  (Aside: is the faces-on-ttys patch I
saw on gnu.emacs.sources going to be included in Emacs?)
