Strange problem...

Lately whenever I double click a file in the finder or drag and drop it on the Xcode 3.2.1 icon Xcode ignores the file and does not open it.
This problem happens on two different machines both running Mac OS 10.6.2.
Whenever that happens system.log shows:
"Xcode[746]: Unexpected character / at line 1"

Notes:
- All the files I tried to open are source files (.mm, .cpp, .h) and selecting Get Info in the Finder on these files shows that Xcode is their 'Open with:' application.
- Sometimes even choosing 'Open...' from the Xcode file menu and selecting the file will not open it, again system.log shows: "Xcode[746]: Unexpected character / at line 1"
- Needless to say that I checked and there is no character '/' at line 1 in any of these files.
- Same files are opened OK by other editors, BBEdit for example.
- All files are Unix (LF) line endings.

What is going on here?
