regtool 1.8 on cygwin 1.5.10: Recursively remove registry keys
Hello, it seems that regtool cannot remove keys in registry if it's not empty. I have to remove all subkeys/values first, otherwise i get an Error (5) access denied. Is this true, or is there a way to remove whole trees from the registry ?

AFAICS, regtool has no recursive option. Patches welcome.
