The file(s) in question might have been saved as Unicode somehow
(i.e. UTF-16). This has happened to one of my files and I get a
similar error message during the build (from copystrings, in my
case).
You can check a file using 'od -x myfile'. If it starts with
feff (or fffe), it's a Unicode file. No doubt someone on this
list knows how to un-Unicode files on a Mac. I do it on
Windows, but I don't like to admit it :)
