It's definitely a bug in setup.  Or rather, two bugs.  What happens is
that a registry key cannot be created in HKLM.  The fact that setup
tries to create the key in HKLM even if the current user has no admin
rights is the first bug.  The second one is that the inability to create
the registry key results in fatal error handling, exiting the application.

Maybe some default permission handling changed in later Windows versions
which trigger the problem but still, it's a bug in setup in the first
place.

I applied a patch to setup.  A new version will be available soon.
