I've just reverted this modification, per Sebastian report.

Can you be more precise about the problem it creates with
org-set-property?

Can you check if this version fixes the problems, if any?

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defmacro org-without-partial-completion (&rest body)
  `(let ((pc-mode ,(and (boundp 'partial-completion-mode)
			'partial-completion-mode)))
     (unwind-protect
	 (progn
	   (when pc-mode (funcall pc-mode -1))
	   ,@body)
       (when pc-mode (funcall pc-mode 1)))))
#+end_src emacs-lisp

Thanks!
