It was only one failed compile out of many submitted - I do suspect
there is enough of a difference between /copy and /include that we
tripped something in the precompiler.

FWiW: If I were a customer with paid support for the OS, I might not let the issue slide. I would consider opening an issue with my service provider to have the issue investigated; i.e. to learn why the compile functioned on v6r1 without any explicit options specified, but that same source and compile invocation no longer functions on v7r1 unless an option is explicitly specified. If the investigation results in a PTF, then I might not only save myself further grief on future compiles by having applied the PTF, but I might save others from encountering the same issue.

Note, re "might": Likely I would assure myself not only that the command default was not an issue, but that any similar default from a IDE I was using did not change the effect, and that I was confident all of the sources had indeed been unchanged... to be as confident as I could be, that my issue was not a usage problem versus the defect that I presumed. If I did not have a v6r1 system\partition on which to do a direct test, I would at least try a previous-release [TGTRLS(v6r1)] compile, to test if that alone is sufficient to show the problem goes away without the explicit compiler option; as very good evidence that there is a difference with literally the same sources.
