FWIW, this also works fine on cygwin / Windows 7. No errors.
$ bash --version GNU bash, version 4.1.10(4)-release (i686-pc-cygwin)
Unsure what that means though - probably nothing!
Greg - when you said it works in vim - since of course vim isn't 'parsing' the input may be you did not see an error - or did you actually verify all 4KB somehow? ;)
