I finally got it!!! I've build wine from the source tarball and regapi
worked properly. There seems to be something broken in the binary
distribution or it works at least not the way it should.
Whatever, I'm happy without Microsoft now. Thanks a lot for all the useful
hints. At least I know now that i'm not an idiot and that it was not my
fault. Nice to know at least.
