Thank you for the report. I think that there is a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark in those files.

Fixed in rC1d8e4c2c3a7d: Remove byte order mark.

Hmm, that is actually the original file. I received it by mail, maybe the sender's MUA added the BOM.

@kdavis: which compiler are you using?
