Yes, this wrong, and afaik, it's your original port to 2.5 that did that
;)

Yeap. The idea of check_var is to validate a mode. Note modedb uses just
check_var. It is okay to READ the values in your par. You shouldn't alter
the values in par.

Perhaps it makes sense to make the info parameter of fb_check_var() const to
prevent this from happening?

Easy fix. I can whip up a quick patch for that.
