[Patch] regtool - Handle keys with only one subkey

[Patch] regtool - Handle keys with only one subkey

[Chris Genly]

I was writing a small installer script using bash and regtool.  I ran in to a bug in regtool which
prevented it from creating top level keys.  Below is the change log and unified diff patch.  I do
not subscribe to this list, so send email directly if you wish to talk to me about the change.

cygwin is amazing.  I'm glad to make a tiny contribution.
