'CleanupRegistry' is something the msi installer does on its own. It's a
default action that is executed. And since we haven't changed anything
in the WiX scripts which generate the msi file between 1.3.2 and 1.3.3 I
can only guess what's going on.

* Somehow some registry keys can't be modified anymore due to access
restrictions (maybe you lost write access to HKCU\Software\TortoiseSVN?).
* Try uninstalling TSVN completely, then reinstall it. (Check if there
are still entries in the "software panel" after uninstalling).
