(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)

This bit is now:

	(if (and old-pos (< (- pos old-pos)
			    ;; The time to use syntax-begin-function and
			    ;; find PPSS is assumed to be about 2 * distance.
			    (let ((pair (aref syntax-ppss-stats 5)))
			      (/ (* 2 (cdr pair)) (car pair)))))

I.e., the last clause is gone.  I don't know whether this affects the
issue you were seeing, though.  Is syntax-ppss still mis-caching things
for you?
