An important patch for the 1.4.3 release is available. In 1.4.3, Poco::Util::WinRegistryKey used a function (RegDeleteKeyEx) not available on Windows XP 32-bit (it is available starting with WinXP 64-bit SP3).

Instead, overloads to load() and the constructor are provided that allow flags being passed to the loader. One of the flags currently supported in SHLIB_LOCAL, resulting in dlopen() being called with RTLD_LOCAL […]
