Okay - I used ANSI. Could there maybe be a check for this in the check 
styles routine, or in general?
I do suppose that must have been the problem.

However - also if I open mkgmap default style-file I notice it is opened 
in ANSI in notepad++ on Windows... I thought notepad++ uses reasonable 
codepage without destruction like Windows own notepad...

I'll have a look on what happens now - after changing the encoding to 
UTF-8 I get '.* ShxEC' shown - so well there might be some bug...
