Oh!  This is news to me -- interesting news too, given that I
distribute Windows versions of SV without an installer and just expect
the user to copy it to %ProgramFiles% if they want it to go there, and
that it only looks in immediate subdirectories of %ProgramFiles% for
plugins of any sort.

I don't recall anyone complaining to me that they couldn't install
plugins for it -- maybe this just means nobody is using it?!

Can you point to any documentation for this?  I'd like to know what
other rules I might be falling afoul of.

I don't suppose you happen to know whether any Windows-based LADSPA
hosts are actually using this path?
