------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
This bug is related to #1515. The installer shouldn't create any keys
under HKCU, and should use system-wide HKLM instead.
Now, the registry key is accessible only to the user who installed the
GHC. Other users don't have the installation path in the registry, and
this breaks all tools which rely on getting the installation path from the
registry.
