Description:
------------
It seems then when using Per Directory Values in the Windows Registry,
these values can then not be changed with ini_set() - for example we set
the sendmail_from value for each individual website using the
registry-based Per Directory Values, but the website owners should then
be able to set their own from address in their scripts using ini_set().

As I understand it, the in-script ini_set() should be the last possible
place a value can be changed (at runtime); not the registry.

Removing the registry entry gives the expected result of:

[email protected]
[email protected]

Reproduce code:
---------------
php.ini
sendmail_from = [email protected]

HKLM\SOFTWARE\PHP\Per Directory Values\[DirPath]
sendmail_from = [email protected]

<?php
echo ini_get("sendmail_from") . "<br>";
ini_set("sendmail_from", "[email protected]");
echo ini_get("sendmail_from");
?>

Expected result:
----------------
[email protected]
[email protected]

Actual result:
--------------
[email protected]
[email protected]
