But the remainder of the population is accumulating non-deleterious mutations.
If the population does not accumulate these changes, then there is not enough changes in the DNA to turn one species into another.
Now here is the problem. Unless it can be shown that there is enough that are beneficial, the rest do corrupt the genome of the species.
It is speculation that there are enough beneficial changes to produce new functionality.
That is another weakness in the theory of evolution.
Well first you have to define what you mean by a corrupted genome?
You see around 95% of the human genome is junk and that number is fairly in every mammalian genome we have mapped.
I think something that may help understand better is the experiments done by Dmitri Belyeav, I'll link

The errors would be distributed throughout the genome. So the genome will be corrupted.
