Our current stance on the matter is that, in the simple case, code
should call syntax-ppss from "widened" state. And the code which doesn't
should be fixed. Or if it really need to do that (for some reason), it
should take care to handle any undesired sife-effects itself.
See the definition of syntax-ppss-wide, which contains caches for both
narrowed and "wide" syntax states.
