From 1027e3fde9b9cb6eb470cc13e48fbd2208658b32 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Greg Ward <gward@python.net>
Date: Fri, 31 Mar 2000 16:53:42 +0000
Subject: [PATCH] Simplified Thomas Heller's registry patch: just assign all
 those HKEY_* and Reg* names once, rather than having near-duplicate code in
 the two import attempts.

Also dropped the leading underscore on all the imported symbols,
as it's not appropriate (they're not local to this module).
