That's very unlikely: the hook is run using a general emacs mechanism,
so if it were broken, a *lot* of things would be broken.

You can check with

(setq org-mode-hook nil)
(add-hook 'org-mode-hook (function (lambda () (message "RL - my org-mode-hook 
ran this"))))

perhaps in a minimal .emacs, and then opening a foo.org file (assuming
your auto-mode-alist is set up correctly).

I'd be really surprised if this does not work as expected. And if it
does, your problem is probably a bit deeper than "emacs does not run
the org-mode-hook": perhaps cleaning out your org-mode-hook, restarting
emacs and then adding things back in one at a time would help to figure
out the problem.

HTH,
