Answering myself here: that didn't work because the part you proposed
to change, i.e.

  if (NILP (visit) && total > 0)
    {
      if (!NILP (BVAR (current_buffer, file_truename))
          /* Make binding buffer-file-name to nil effective.  */
          && !NILP (BVAR (current_buffer, filename))
          && SAVE_MODIFF >= MODIFF)
        we_locked_file = true;
      prepare_to_modify_buffer (PT, PT, NULL);
    }

is not executed when REPLACE is non-nil.  So adding the condition you
suggested there will have no effect at all.

The relevant code is indeed the 3 calls to del_range_byte.
