Xml::build() BOM "\xEF\xBB\xBF"

[salines]

Just report,

i have unable to open and read some xml files with
Xml::build() method

UPDATE:

$file = new File($local_xml);
$f = $file->read()
$xml = Xml::build($f);

Error:

Exception: Xml cannot be read. in [/vagrant/vendor/cakephp/cakephp/src/Utility/Xml.php, line 168]

Does new SimpleXmlElement() work with your file?
