I tried your suggestion but could not figure out how to prevent the destination 
register's value from being changed. Could you know the exact code that sets 
this value? 

I did manage to simply my patch more, but as-is it doesn't solve the problem of 
leaving the destination register's value alone when it needs to. 

Here is the new patch I am working on:
