Hmm, I'm not sure I follow you on this.  As far as I can tell, it rather
protects against a particular bug in the C code: calling modification
hooks without calling prepare_to_modify_buffer.  Once this is fixed,
there is no need for it.  Furthermore, the "protection" is somewhat
dubious, since it also prevents running hooks in the correct buffer
(i.e., this bug).
