It looks as thought there might be a special character hidden somewhere in that file.
You can check the file encoding to make sure it is not some bastard encoding with the command-line: `file .gtkrc-2.0:1` You can also view special characters in a text file with the VI editor. `vi .gtkrc-2.0:1` Then type ":set list" to show special characters. ":set nolist" turns that off, and ":q" quits out of VI. You might be able to 'fix' it by simply loading it up into a visual text editor, manually setting its encoding, and saving it.
