REG files from Clean Install of CS4 in both XP & WINE

I performed a clean install of CS4 on XP, and dumped the reg entries. I also
created a clean prefix and did the same in WINE. I used the same Windows
Utility to create the registry dumps from XP and WINE, and have zipped both
files together (named accordingly) in this attachment. I have tried importing
both and I get the same errors from both files:

Warning! Unrecognized escape sequence: \P'
regedit: warning: unrecognized line: '"C:\Program Files\Common
Files\Adobe\Installers\d2f336b2c5feeb945c28b7a0a45170f\RegLoc\ar_AE\"='

The problem as I see it is that Windows has no problem with things like this:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Control
Panel\Extended Properties\{305CA226-D286-468e-B848-2B2E8E697B74} 2\]
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Version Cue
CS4\Server\bin\VersionCueCS4.cpl"=dword:00000003

But wine doesn't like single back-slashes. And if I convert each single
instance of \ to \\ I mess up the registry key.
