AFAIK there is no standard way to do this.

"Not standard" means that you can inject unmanaged dll that will replace
default registry api.
This unmanaged dll will communicate with managed side with the help of any
IPC ( window messages, sockets, named pipes, etc )

You can use System.Management and WMI to register a Registry Event listener,
but you should be prepared to get quite some events per second on a busy
system, so this should only be used for debugging purposes.
