virt-copy-out is just a wrapper around the guestfish copy-out command.

You can use the guestfish command copy-out directly, but you have to
do the drive letter mapping "by hand":

guestfish --ro -d Win2003 -i <<EOF
umount-all
# to display drive mappings, do 'inspect-get-drive-mappings /dev/vda2'
# this assumes d: is /dev/sdb1
mount-ro /dev/sdb1 /
copy-out win:/foo /bar
EOF

There's a related RFE to have guestfish create drive mountpoints which
would make this happen automagically.  See the TODO file.
