The msi-copy executable was a bit of a hack; it was needed so the msi.t
script could find an msi program to be tested. On the base-7.0 branch I
have modified the install rule that generates .t files from .plt sources
so they can now use @TOP@ and @ARCH@ which get replaced when the .t file
is built. As a result I deleted the msi-copy target because the script
can now run msi directly from the @TOP@/bin/@ARCH@ directory.

I think this fix should work for earlier branches, please test it when
you get a chance:
