Will retest with latest development version tomorrow. Including here the
response I've gotten on the subject from Russ Andersson, developer of
SynthEyes:

"The key point here is that SynthEyes needs to be able to write to the
registry. If WINE doesn't understand permissions, it shouldn't be prohibiting
the write either. If WINE is prohibiting the write, there must be some way it
decides what to do, perhaps it just need to be told that

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SynthEyes

should be writable in general. This all worked fine in Windows XP for that
matter, it was Vista that introduced the need to run as administrator."
