Paul Moore added the comment:

I thought that most of the users of this functionality had stopped doing so 
(the only one I recall for certain was pywin32, and last time this came up, I 
think someone said they had stopped).

If the functionality isn't used in any of the well-known modules, I'm +1 on 
deprecating it (if it is, I'm all for encouraging them to stop and then *still* 
deprecating it :-))

Use of the registry keys would prevent virtual environments from managing 
proper isolation, as well, so it's not just an issue for the embedded 
distribution.
