Please file this as a bug on the Config-IniFiles RT queue:

https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=Config-IniFiles

Please give a testcase where it fails. (And naturally, a patch including tests 
would be ideal).

BTW, I didn't realise UTF-8 needed a BOM. Can you elaborate on it? I'll try to 
wikipedia it.
