EVALUATION We're fixing this as a blanket putback for au2.0 follow up functional correctness: 6893319. During the jaureg.exe when called from JRE MSI uninstall, it will wait for the JRE mutex to be finished, and then it'll uninstall au2.0.

EVALUATION The fix is to have the JRE uninstaller call jaureg.exe without waiting it to finish. The jaureg.exe, if it detects the JRE was the last product to uninstall, will uninstall au2.0 once the JRE MSI mutex is available.

EVALUATION The fix is to have jaureg.exe uninstall the JRE when the last JRE is unregisted.
