With that workaround it works as expected.  

 ConfigurationUtils.copy results in escaped , characters no longer being 
 escaped

 Key: CONFIGURATION-272
 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-272
 Project: Commons Configuration
  Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.4
 Environment: commons 1.4
Reporter: John Meagher
 Fix For: 1.5


 When using ConfigurationUtils.copy to go between configuration formats any 
 escaped out , characters are put into the output configuration without the 
 escape character.  This results in a different value being returned from 
 getString calls as it now things the property is a list.  If 4 escape 
 characters are used instead of the expected 1 then the copy will end up with 
 the correct value, but then the original will end up with the escape 
 character as part of the property value.  
 Example:
 SomeLongProperty=This is a test\, it is only a test
 # Ends up right in the copy, but not right in the original
 SomeOtherProperty=This is also a test, it is also only a test
 After copy:
 # Missing \ before ,
 SomeLongProperty=This is a test, it is only a test
 SomeOtherProperty=This is also a test\, it is also only a test
