The root of the problem is that Windows assumes a system-wide locale, while it
can be set per-process on Unix. So if you run processes under different locales
with the same registry then the entries will change depending on which process
updates them. The alternative would be to ignore the specified Unix locale, but
that wouldn't be an improvement.
