Research direction
Start by examining the PossibleValueSet entry point and reproducing the reported mismatch when inspecting HLIL variables against MLIL variables. The issue names no files or tests, so first determine the relevant API and existing mapping behavior; done requires a clearly defined mapping and expected value results.
