Magic stuff :)

For reference, the equivalent inside Qt was tracked in http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-7518

[Janne Koskinen]

To clarify the magic number a bit.

"An additional mechanism exists to specify backup registration files for data
owners that do not have private directories - this is to be used for DLLs which
are installed as part of a package. To use this method, the backup registration
file must be placed in a special location under the Secure Backup Engine’s
private directory:

\private\10202D56\import\packages\<package-id>\backup_registration.xml

(10202D56 is the SID of the Secure Backup Engine, and <package-id> should be
replaced with the ID of the package containing the DLL)"
