I thought some of you might want to hear that I bounced this problem
back and forth with Mr. Borraz and we eventually traced it to some
spurious control characters in the Jess script he was reading! Jess
apparently doesn't do a great job of reporting this particular brand of
syntax error (a fairly generic "I/O Error" was all he was getting.)
Anyway, it's nice to have closure.
