Yep, doesn't look like there's any documented way to get the Powershell 
registry provider to work right with this. Even if we could get it to work 
right with the creation, it'd still break on all the Test-Path and other 
calls. Only way to handle this "right" would be a complete rewrite of 
win_regedit to directly use the .NET Registry classes instead (probably not 
happening anytime soon).
