According to the UTF-8 spec \uFEFF is not a BOM. In UTF-8 the byte order is always the same.

UTF-16 defines a BOM.

If it is a BOM, I bet it was put in there by an MS editor.

AFAIK, It's a UTF-8 BOM.  I don't know who's editor put it there, but
it looks like the last time I edited CHANGES.txt it mangled it.  I
just removed it.
