Register shell extension on Win 7

First of all, I can't get TortoiseSVN to work on Win 7. It hangs when
trying to open plink.exe to make the connection. I've spent a lot of time
troubleshooting this issue and decided I will try to debug the issue myself.

So on to my current issue. I downloaded the latest source as of today,
built a debug version successfully, and then followed the instructions in
debug-hints.txt. I added the I've run register.reg to register the shell
extension with explorer.exe, however TortoiseSVN is not showing up in the
context menus of the explorer. Ultimately I want to debug the shell
extension, but it won't run from the version I built myself. I uninstalled
the original TortoiseSVN that I downloaded in case there were conflicts with
the version I built. I've re-run register.reg/ deregister.reg a few times.
I've double checked them for path accuracy. I'm using Visual Studio 2008 +
sp1 and I got no build errors building Subversion + TortoiseSVN targets.

Any suggestions for me to try to get my own build to run as a shell
extension?
