Nope!  Reverting that did nothing here.

I looked closer.  After the program runs,
system.reg contains
[System\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\Session Manager\\Environment]
"PATH"=str(2):"C:\\windows\\system32;C:\\windows;C:\\windows\\system32\\wbem"
and user.reg contains
[Environment]
"PATH"=";\"C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003
R2\\Bin\\.\";\"C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server
2003 R2\\Bin\\win95.\""

which doesn't seem that bad.  Maybe the problem is that Wine isn't
combining the system-wide and the user-specific PATH settings properly;
it should append them.  A comment in
http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/29472-45-environment-variable-where
agrees with this.
Looking at kernel32/process.c:set_registry_environment(),
it seems as if in wine, user-specific registry settings simply override
the system-wide ones, even for PATH.

So unless I'm reading set_registry_environment() wrong, this is a kernel32
bug, and not a regression.  I must have been wrong when I said this
worked before.  And sure enough, running wine-1.1.31's cmd still shows
the screwed up PATH.
