Something I just thought of, and tested.  Bash doesn't like sourcing
files in DOS format, because the CRs are not recognised as white
space.

Check this by opening the file with vim, and noting whether the status
line contains "[dos]" after the file is open.  (That information will
disappear if you go into insert mode or do almost anything else to the
file.)

Change it by typing

  :se ff=unix

in vim, and then saving the file.
