Hirokazu Yamamoto <[email protected]> added the comment:
This happens because RegQueryInfoKeyA returns maximum value
name length in *Unicode* characters. Strange API.
lpcMaxValueNameLen [out, optional]
A pointer to a variable that receives the size of the key's longest value
name, in Unicode characters. The size does not include the terminating null
character. This parameter can be NULL.

The Unicode length equals to Ansi length in ascii locale,
so this may not happen where people live in ascii locale.
