It looks like cursor points to mod/reg/rm byte, not rex byte.
Comment above says it too. You seem to be clearing a bit
in a wrong byte. I think it should be
/* Clear REX.b bit (extension of MODRM.rm field):
* we want to encode rax/rcx, not r8/r9.
*/
if (insn->rex_prefix.nbytes)
insn->rex_prefix.bytes[0] &= 0xfe;
