By "should" I mean that the intention is the same (and also the result, *if* registrytool can set the AppPaths key). Yes, I have tested it. By first removing the AppPaths entries in the registry and commenting out the rt.setPathInfo line, I have working effects if I call _win32_set_inkscape_env and a crash with Glib::SpawnError otherwise.

Interesting.. Is this new in Vista? For WinXP AppPaths must be in HKLM. That patch does not work for me.
