Summary: Installer outputs BOM from History.txt

Initial Comment:
After installation, changelog item for last version is displayed to console.  
However, the file is in UTF-8 with BOM (byte order mark, "EF BB BF") and the 
BOM is output to console as well, which results in display of three "ugly" 
characters.


Excerpt from output:

-----8<-----
d:\var\tmp\ror\rubygems-1.8.5\rubygems-1.8.5>ruby setup.rb
RubyGems 1.8.5 installed

=== 1.8.4 / 2011-05-31

* 1 minor enhancement:

  * The -u option to 'update local source cache' is official deprecated.
  * Remove has_rdoc deprecations from Specification.

* 2 bug fixes:
[...]
----->8-----


Suggestions:

  * Filter out the BOM on output
  * Convert History.txt to ANSI/ISO
    (History.txt seems to be the only UTF-8 file around anyway)
