Yes, it must've gotten duplicated when I rebased.  Thanks for spotting it!

You're quite right, I need to make a copy of the src_reg state and use
 that, at least in the case where it's a real register.  Probably the
 place to do it is at the call sites in adjust_reg_min_max_vals().
I'll sprinkle a few consts around as well, to catch that sort of thing.
