Note that I have no clue about GNUstep, so I might be off by a big
amount, but -- are you sure the system wants a leading byte order mark
with UTF-8? (strictly speaking, it's unnecesary --rather slightly
annoying-- on UTF-8. I always thought that in entered the Unicode
consortium via Microsoft, who always likes to play this kind of
shenanigans on us).

You might try without leading BOM?
