Summary: pythonpath registry value ignored in 2.0

Details: The value of the HKLM\software\python\pythoncore\2.0\pythonpath
key is now ignored in Python 2.0 unless you have at least one subkey
underneath it. Since the default installation program doesn't add any
subkeys, users familiar with 1.5.2 who expect to just set pythonpath
in the registry will be disappointed.

I imagine that you all probably run with other extensions installed that
add subkeys under pythonpath and thus never see this bug. However, the
first thing I did after installing 2.0 was to try to point to my custom
libs. 5 hours later I can finally start testing to see if they still work
:).

This problem is undoubtedly related to bug 127722. Fix that and you'll fix
this one.
