I observe the same behavior in current leafpad as well.

I'm able to open the file with the Kate editor and when I do so, in the bottom
right of the window it displays "UTF-16LE".

This is what encguess says:

$ encguess *.log
Chipset_20160403204652_0_SetupChipsetx64.msi.log        UTF-16

I can also produce a smaller text file that leafpad fails to correctly open:

$ echo Test. | iconv -t UTF16 -o test-utf16.txt
