For what it is worth, -S seems to work with -O in my quick testing.
For example, I did this on my Linux box with latest svn:

./nmap -S 127.0.0.2 -p8080,2000 -O localhost -e lo --packet-trace

And all of the sent packets came from 127.0.0.2.

Or maybe one of your recent changes fixed this.

Cheers,
