msi System Search looking for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE32

Hello,
I have built an 32-Bit Basic MSi Setup.
As "System Search" I define search for some registry value:
HKLM
SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Word\InstallRoot
Path

Search in 64-bit portion of reg is OFF

Property: FOUNDWW14

On some PC (Win7x86) is property FOUNDWW14 empty. But Office 2010 32-Bit is installed and looking in Registry I can see the Path-Key with installation target.

If I look in the setup log file, I see AppSearch is looking in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE32 (NOT in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE).

=========================================

The another Search:

HKLM
SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v3.5
SP

Search in 64-bit portion of reg is OFF

Property: DOT35SP

Does work properly (see log file).

What is wrong on this System, please

The log file shows it looking for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE32,
when infact the hive name is just HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
