Problem identified. Notepad inserts a BOM character (0xFEFF) at the
beginning of the file. This is not standard, but just something that
Windows uses for UTF-8 and which is discouraged in Unix. I cannot cope with
this at the level of encoding, because that would break Unix applications
and would make ECL work differently on Windows and on Unix. Instead I have
hacked a simpler solution: BOM is interpreted by the Lisp reader as a
whitespace.

I will upload a patch tonight or tomorrow. Thanks for providing me with the
three test cases. They are really useful!
