[Glass] Strange source import behaviour ..

Using an editor that reads UTF-8 to find out whether the character is as
encoded UTF-8 representation is not helpful. You need to use an editor that
lets you examine the raw bytes in the file. i.e. a so-called hex editor

However, the fact that it is recognized as a UTF-8 file is interesting.

Try inspecting the $- character in the generator to see if it really has
the value 16r2D or if it is a Unicode dash of some kind (i.e. code point >
127).
