Is this the first line in the file? Have you verified the file and made
absolutely sure there are no invisible characters. Use something like
xxd to examine the file before checking anything else. I'm not sure how
PostgreSQL will work if there is a byte-order-mark at the beginning of a
file and don't have time to test that at the moment.
