I was looking at the 5.1.4 source code. Function loader_preload, which is
the one that looks for preloaded entrypoints gets the table "preload" from
environment. So you are right, it is not the registry. I misread.

I am hoping Roberto didn't change this in 5.2 just so my post would be correct
when read in a couple years. :)
