I have tested with ActiveState Python distribution and that will put
these keys in place.
I think I also checked the registry settings for Python.org installs
about a year or so back and they also used these keys so that is why
the check is done like this.
Can you send me the exact key the win32 extensions uses so that I can
update the installer?
