Really appreciate you went through this much trouble. But if you don't
terribly mind, I wonder if you can help confirm if reinstalling
TortoiseOverlays with "ALLUSERS=1" over the one without would fix it
too.
If it does, it might provide a simpler and quicker workaround for the
users having problem with 0.5 now.

That's my understanding from the doc too.

On my machine, both return a value and subkey. But I am not sure what
you are trying to say that, as these are CLSID's of TortoiseSVN?
