How do I remove this BOM marker once it's inserted? Damn it, it causes all my XSL transformations on Java to fail!

ByteOrderMarker makes no sense in UTF-8. Notepad and other MS-tools silently insert it in all UTF-8 files, making them invalid. This breaks HTML validation, causes trash in some browsers and breaks PHP4 buffering...
