Well, well, well.  Guess who the culprit is...

I edited the file both in Vim and in pgAdmin3 (1.10.2, Mar 9 2010, rev 8217), and the BOM shows up after saving the file with pgAdmin3.

I don't know if pgAdmin3 wants to keep this feature...

Thank everyone again for the excellent help.

Tends to get added if you go through a Windows system. Useless for utf-8 afaik. Confuse the hell out of you because various tools parse and hide them then you pipe the file to a script and everything falls over.

Bunch of scripts available here to remove them:
