Message:

I committed your patch, with a change to avoid leaking HKEYs (I added a call to RegCloseKey before the "continue" statements).
Please verify if it works for you

        Key: XERCESC-855
    Summary: Bad Win32 Registry "charset" Entry causes panic
       Type: Bug

     Status: Resolved
 Resolution: FIXED

    Project: Xerces-C++
 Components: 
             Miscellaneous
   Versions:
             2.2.0

Platform: PC

Description:
We had a problem where a customer had a bad entry in their Windows Registry,
under "MIME\\Database\\Charset".  This caused Xerces to panic, which aborted
our program.

Seems to me that it would make more sense to ignore bad registry entries (or in
fact, any entry that causes an error from one of the Windows RegXXX functions.
