Your right, this is bug, can you try a cvs update, and see if it works better now?
I have changed it to look in the PATH, and then a few better places than before, like
the registry entries left by the installers.  But it should get the and make that are
in the path of the environment you run it in.  If it does not find it that way, it will
look in the registry.

Anyway, give it a try and let me know.
