Not quite.
Crouch!Moody says that Harry survived an AK but also says that there's
no counter-curse to it and no blocking it. Emphatically and repeatedly.
Seems a bit contradictory to me.
So I take the easy way out - if it's a spell that was countered by an
ancient magic charm then it couldn't by definition have been an AK.
Crouch!Moody was guessing, he didn't *know* what happened.

Kneasy
