Searching the same key in the same wine prefix

Create a new prefix, then install some software. Now open Registry Editor,
highlight the keys relative to the software, then close it. Make the software
change the registry. Open it and you should see no actual change. Then create a
new key and perform a query search in the command prompt. Wine will not see the
key.

Does the clientside NTSaveKey patchset happen to be the culprit? I'm not
proficient enough to understand how the registry is implemented in Wine. Not
sure if this happens in devel, but I will test shortly.
