Er, here it works as expected.
- open a file
- set the encoding to UTF-8
- set to write a BOM (document menu->Write Unicode BOM)
- type some text
- save the file
If I open the saved file with a hexeditor, it starts with EF BB BF.
Which version of Geany, GLib and iconv you are using? Are you
perhaps using another platform than x86?

Enrico
