You can't do that. The default is what's found by 'step (2)' from your description, not any hardcoded path. The version from Gecko package is meant for packaged Wine. You should copy the .cab file to appropriate directory for your own build.
I don't think there would be any harm in trying some global paths even when running from the build tree, so that people can install their distro's wine-gecko package and have private builds take advantage of it. But of course this should be done directly in the code, not by changing the default registry entry.
