[Therion] Therion breaks Cygwin/Tcl

[Stacho Mudrak]

Hmmm, sounds strange - therion installer should never overwrite this registry.
(see p.s.). If you install therion once again - is this key again overwritten?

Regards, S.

P.S. Here isthe registry section of our ISS script. This Key is not touched by
therion installation script.
