New submission from Bob <r_sanf...@verizon.net>:

When calling winreg.SetValueEx(key, value_name, reserved, type, value), the 
value argument does not support the full range of a 32 bit unsigned integer, 
which the Window's registry API is expecting. For example, passing a value 
0x80000000 will result in the following exception:
OverflowError: Python int too large to convert to C long. For consistency with 
the Window's binding, it should support an unsigned long.
