Hi Jeff,

Yes, sorry for not making this clear earlier: AS_VAR_COPY is fairly new,
and was introduced because AS_VAR_GET has problems.  You should be able
to workaround it by placing something like

  m4_ifndef([AS_VAR_COPY],
    [m4_define([AS_VAR_COPY],
       [AS_LITERAL_IF([$1[]$2], [$1=$$2], [eval $1=\$$2])])])

early into the m4 stream (untested).

Cheers,
Ralf
