Thanks guys,

I've tried all sort of 'fixes' like trying to add escape characters,
using closing tags, completely deleting the null symbols and what not,
but loading the page in drupal still causes similar parsing errors
although not always at the last line.

The files in question are attached in this message.

When looking at them with a hex editor I see this:

000027b0  20 7d 0d 0a 20 20 20 20  24 6c 69 73 74 5f 70 72  | }..    $list_pr|

00006178

It is the last 5 lines that seem to cause the problem.  Any idea why
they are shown as binary in text editors (using vim, or less)?

PS.  I just looked at earlier (stable) versions of these files here:

http://drupal.org/project/skinr

and here:

http://drupal.org/project/fusion

and they do not have the binary characters at the end - so this could
well be a problem with the development versions.  I'll try the stable
versions when I get home and report back.
