Description:
The registry test package has an 'english' constraint
that is set only by US english locale. Here in the UK
we think our english is more english than yours of
course :)

Modifying the constraint to permit UK english shows up
only one additional failure under Win98 which is
actually an NT specific error message dependency.

This patch changes the constraint to a string match
instead of string equal. But I'm uncertain that it
should perhaps be checking the codepage as well?

I would think that the patch should work even
in a hypothetical English-speaking locale that uses
another code page, since the Windows error
message is transliterated from system encoding
to UTF-8.  Hence, it looks good as it is.  Committed.
