sitecustomize.py still works, afaik
(see the comments in site.py for details).
iirc, most of the stuff in the registry isn't really there
for plain python usage; it's there to make sure COM
and other windows-specific goodies work as they
should.
(btw, if you want a really plain python-on-windows
installation, our py15 distribution doesn't touch the
registry or the system directories at all...)
