Absolutely. I opted for dropping const to make the DoRead* and DoWrite* methods feel consistent. At first glance, it looked like there may be methods in RegisterContext which expect non-const GPR/FPU/etc objects, so it seemed reasonable to drop const.

I'm open to just adding in the const_cast<X>(static_cast<const X>(...)) pattern as needed to suppress warnings, and to constifying the rest of RegisterContext as a follow-up. Let me know what you'd prefer.
