I can't think of any work-around off the top of my head other than 
going in and edit (escape) any variable that is to be left untouched.

A real work-around would achieve to substitute only certain variables 
(specifically $LocalConfig{Version}) while leaving others untouched. 
Less flexible but probably still acceptable would be a solution that 
has variables substituted in one part (the $LocalConfig{Version} would 
be there obviously), but not in another. I guess that's not too 
difficult to do, but kind of starts looking overengineered.

So, if none of these options appeal to you, we'll have to reverse that 
change.
