Finally got the response to a request I made a few months ago. The FAA says that despite the interpretations on instructors and trainees not having to meet the landing currency rules for flight with passengers, if you're going out to get some simulated instrument time with a safety pilot, the PIC must be current for flight with a passenger. The logic is that you'll have the hood off during landing and takeoff, and then the second pilot isn't required and becomes a passenger.
