OK, thanks, that makes sense (I just wanted to make sure the problem
wasn't some silly misunderstanding).

The code you show seems fine to me except for the `2` which should be
a `1` (there is only one subgroup in your second regexp).
To debug these things, you can try:
- `C-u C-x =` on the char(s) where you expect a syntax-table text property,
to check whether it's present or not.
- Call `syntax-propertize` by hand in case of doubt.
- Trace your rules function. E.g. use
(defun my-syntax-propertize (beg end)
(funcall
(syntax-propertize-rules
("\\(<\\)<" (1 "(>"))
(">\\(>\\)" (1 ")<")))
beg end))
[...]
(setq-local syntax-propertize-function
#'my-syntax-propertize)
and then `M-x trace-function RET my-syntax-propertize RET`.
