Wine has a fully functional support for reading nt-registrys. 
The reading and mounting of additional hives is just not implemented but
it's trivial.

PS: the driver at
> It's ntreg on this page http://razor.bindview.com/tools/
is based on a document found as example at www.wotsit.org.
Never nt-versions are using datastructures not described in this
document. I'm think the wine nt-regsitry loader is a bit better since
it already supports this structures. (I did not check the source of
ntreg, but had a mail exchange with the author of this code and
he liked to check the status of the wine loader.)
