c# - RegLoadAppKey working fine on 32-bit OS, failing on 64-bit OS, even if both processes are 32-bit

I'm using .NET 4 and the new RegistryKey.FromHandle call so I can take the hKey I get from opening a software registry file with RegLoadAppKey and operate on it with the existing managed API.

I thought at first it was just a matter of a busted DllImport and my call had an invalid type in the params or a missing MarshalAs or whatever, but looking at other registry functions and their DllImport declarations (for instance, on pinvoke.net), I don't see what else to try (I've had hKey returned as both int and IntPtr, both worked on 32-bit OS and fail on 64-bit OS)

I've got it down to as simple a repro case as I can - it just tries to create a 'random' subkey then write a value to it. It works fine on my Win7 x86 box and fails on Win7 x64 and 2008 R2 x64, even when it's still a 32-bit process, even run from a 32-bit cmd prompt. EDIT: It also fails in the same way if it's a 64-bit process. EDIT: it works fine if the file passed in is empty - the problem case is for the existing software registry hive. I extracted 'bare' software registry hive files from 2008 r2 (x64) and WHS v1 (x86) iso's and both have the same problem.

on Win7 x86:

INFO: Running as Admin in 32-bit process on 32-bit OS
Was able to create MicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRunOnceExa95b1bbf-7a04-4707-bcca-6aee6afbfab7 and write a value under it

on Win7 x64, as 32-bit:

on Win7 x64, as 64-bit:

Ended up with opening a support case with Microsoft Support - the problem is specific to 1) the hives that ship on the install media for recent versions of Windows and 2) RegLoadAppKey as an API. Switching over to RegLoadKey/RegUnLoadKey instead worked fine for the exact same files (in the same process, even), and since the bug in RegLoadAppKey is unlikely to get fixed (let alone soon) to deal with those specific files, I just switched to RegLoadKey/RegUnLoadKey instead.
