Nope, I excluded that as a possible cause pretty quickly. I don't know why, but
it's something about the actual inclusion of the piped commands to rotatelogs
that actually causes the false error about nonexistent Unicode characters. If I
uncomment them, I get the error... if I comment them out, I don't.
Now you know why I'm asking for help with this. What exactly about my syntax
(see previous post with sample) is so broken that it could cause such a non
sequitur error?

Sounds like a BOM issue. Try either saving the config file with a
non-unicode encoding, or otherwise disable BOMs in your editor. Apache
is not able to deal with byte order marks in config files as far as i
know.
