Because the registry.tdb is paced in the "state directory"
which is by default equal to the "lock directory".
(So next reload would load a different registry than the first
load...)

When I wrote this, there was no separate "state directory"
parameter. So I should probably add "state directory" to the
list of forbidden parameters...

See source3/lib/smbconf/smbconf_reg.c:smbconf_reg_valname_forbidden()
