Summary: def or class at beg. of file screws up XCode

Initial Comment:
XCode is constantly throwing me the following with certain .py 
files when attempting to view them within a cocoa-python project.  

Uncaught Exception:
*** -[NSCFString characterAtIndex:]: Range or index out of bounds

When attempting to view them on their own by dragging and 
dropping, the file will either open but the titlebar is greyed out adn 
the text not editable, or not open, or crash the program.  My 
settings are for UTF-8.  This only happens with certain files.  
Removing the .py extension and then restarting the project 
eliminated the problem, and putting it back on created it again, so 
it's safe to say there is some sort of problem with the pyobjc file 
template or something.  Whichever code is involved in formatting/
labelling segments of python code isn't playing well with XCode's 
engine to do so.  

After some fiddling I discovered that declaring a def or class at the 
very beginning of the file causes the problem.  Putting in an extra 
line or a comment or shebang makes it work again.  Furthermore, 
simply typing "def: " as the first line doesn't do it, you actually 
have to say "def this(): " for it to happen.  Although now I can 
actually use the code, please fix it.
