Just to double-check before I spend time fighting Windows -- this is
using the App Paths section of the Registry, which explicitly is only
for .exe according to the MSDN (hah!  right ...) page I linked to?

I can well believe that MSDN is wrong, but given that I now have
something vaguely working I'm loath to prod too much more.

If things are hosed, I can well believe that too -- company laptop, so I
was a good boy and joined it to the Windows Domain at work.  That's the
domain which immediately stomps all over the Registry (good) with config
which hasn't really been updated since NT 3.51 days (not so good)
because there are no _good_ Windows admins left at $employer (except the
one who became a Unix admin and refuses to keep bailing out the Windows
admin, especially since one is a political shit).
