Are they AND condition? If so, this patch will be useless.
Please remember \encoding or SET client_encoding appear
*after* BOM at beginning of file. I'll agree if the condition is
"Eat BOM at beginning of file and <<set client encoding to UTF-8>>",
like:

I assumed psql discards whitespaces automatically, but I see it is
more robust to remove BOM bytes explitly. I'll fix it.
