Docker: Private Registry push yields "Error: Invalid registry endpoint" and "insecure-registry"

For some time I've been using boot2docker on my mac.
This was version 1.3.1.
I also have a private registry which for the purposes of this post I've called 10.0.0.1:5000.

Some time ago I accidently brew updated and got docker 1.4.1.
So I couldn't access the running boot2docker daemon.
For some reason that seemed quite reasonable at the time, I didn't restart the boot2docker vm.
Go figure.

So I had to do this kind of thing:

(
export DOCKER_HOST=tcp://192.168.59.103:2376
export DOCKER_CERT_PATH=${HOME}/.boot2docker/certs/boot2docker-vm
export DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY=1
/usr/local/Cellar/docker/1.3.2/bin/docker push 10.0.0.1:5000/some_image
)

Then today I accidently started Kitematic.
Which upgraded the boot2docker vm and restarted it.
And blammo I could no longer push to the private repository.

FATAL[0002] Error: Invalid registry endpoint https://10.0.0.1:5000/v1/: \
  Get https://10.0.0.1:5000/v1/_ping: EOF. \
  If this private registry supports only HTTP or HTTPS with an unknown CA certificate, \
  please add `--insecure-registry 10.0.0.1:5000` to the daemon's arguments. \
  In the case of HTTPS, if you have access to the registry's CA certificate, \
  no need for the flag; simply place the CA certificate at \
  /etc/docker/certs.d/10.0.0.1:5000/ca.crt

Bugger.
Dope slap.
Noob.

So the fix is:

1) ssh into your boot2docker vm and
2) sudo vi /var/lib/boot2docker/profile and
3) Add 'EXTRA_ARGS="--insecure-registry 10.0.0.1:5000"' to it, :wq and
4) sudo /etc/init.d/docker restart
5) And just use the /usr/local/bin/docker and not the Cellar version.

YMMV.
