HKCU\Environment - is "per user" settings. HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager\Environment - is "system wide".
Of course on Wine it's the same. But they work the same as on windows - user's settings override system defaults. So in the case of PATH manual is 100% correct - you need to set that for user not system.
