The file dates on cp1250.txt, cp1251.txt and cp1252.txt were all Oct. 15,
2003, same as /bin/antiword.exe. I reinstalled to make sure that
cp1250.txt, cp1251.txt and cp1252.txt had not been changed: same error.
cp1250.txt, cp1251.txt and cp1252.txt have "0x00<tab>0x0000<tab>#NULL" as
the first line of the definitions.
vim reports that the files are in DOS mode. Converting to Unix line endings
with d2u does not get rid of the error message.
The spaces between "#" and "NULL" is a tab:
/usr/share/antiword> antiword -w 0 path/file.doc 2&> tmp
/usr/share/antiword> head -1 tmp
Syntax error in: '0x00 0x0000 # NULL'
/usr/share/antiword> head -1 tmp | od -c
0000000 S y n t a x e r r o r i n :
0000020 ' 0 x 0 0 \t 0 x 0 0 0 0 \t # \t
0000040 N U L L ' \n
0000046
reinstalled and inserted tabs after #: no change
then converted dos to unix: no change
reinstalled
Tried mapping files, all gave the error messages except MacRoman.txt,
UTF-8.txt, and roman.txt. (roman.txt gave a lot of error messages, but not
the "Syntax error in:" one.

Interesting. Have the codepage mapping files been modified?
Please have a look in /usr/share/antiword, the three files cp1250.txt,
cp1251.txt and cp1252.txt should contain "0x00 0x0000 #NULL" at the
first line of the definitions without space between '#' and 'NULL'.
