8 - sel is wrong; you wanted sel - 8.

That said, you can do better with masking operations.  And for brevity, let
count increment by 8.  E.g.

  uint64_t vdst = 0;
  int count;

  for (count = 0; count < 64; count += 8) {
    uint64_t sel = rsrcb >> count;
    uint64_t src = (sel & 8 ? rsrc : rdst);
    vdst |= ((src >> ((sel & 7) * 8)) & 0xff) << count;
  }
