Summary: PythonPath registry value ignored in Py2

Initial Comment:
The difference I see between this and 229584
is that there are subkeys under ..\2.1\PythonPath
as I installed win32extensions (bld 139).

I still cannot pick up these paths. I resorted to 
simply hard codeing them in the path for windows 2k.
Is this no longer supported? 

Esp since 229584 seems closed wi works for me.

If I understand the report correctly, the user complains 
that HKLM\Software\Python\PythonCore\2.1\PythonPath is not 
used to build sys.path. According to the commentary in 
PC/getpathp.c, this is not a bug: If Python can locate its 
home from PYTHONHOME or by finding the landmark, it will 
ignore the PythonPath default value, and only consider the 
subkeys. So I close this as Won't Fix.

Assigned to Mark.  Unclear what this is about, or even 
what "Py2" means.
