Bug description

Full_Name: Wei Wong
Version: 3.08.2
OS: win2000
Submission from: 218.94.65.252 (218.94.65.252)

In file "win32caml/startocaml.c", line 144-150. It seems that the program is
expected to find the interpreter by the key "InterpreterPath" or asking the
user.
If there is no key named "InterpreterPath" in the registry yet, these codes
will work well. But if the key already exists and is set to a wrong value, the
program will show the error message("Incorrect path for ocaml.exe")
repeatedly(without asking the user for a correct interpreter path).
I changed the codes like this:

// ==========================================================
// ...
if ((!ReadRegistry(HKEY_CURRENT_USER,
"Software", "Objective Caml",
"InterpreterPath", path) || path[0] == 0)
&&
(!ReadRegistry(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
"Software", "Objective Caml",
"InterpreterPath", path) || path[0] == 0)) {
// ...
// ==========================================================

Besides, I'm sorry for my poor English. :P
