Steve Dower added the comment:

I'm already quite keen to rename the registry key for 32-bit on Windows, since there are some places where that will cause conflicts. This won't be done for 3.4 though, as we don't have an active maintainer for the old installer (Martin is still building them, but not working on it). I haven't yet thought about how the updated keys should look, but when I get time to get back to the installer I'll try some things.

The 3.5 installer shouldn't have this issue as it will use product codes to detect other Python installations rather than registry keys.
