Thanks for the replies - much appreciated. Willem: I compiled on trunk from March 7th (last friday), and I'm working it on a Macbook.
davsclaus: The file is not empty - it has some non-structured text data in it.
Based on Willem's evidence, there's a chance that the issue has
resolved itself magically on trunk, so I'll svn up later and give it a
spin.
cheers!
