Right, it's a late reply to this but to all others looking for the same solution refer to this post:

I'd also like to add that The problem could also be with your opening <?php declaration as well as possibly your closing ones (which you shouldn't be using in silverstripe.)

I'm using eclipse and this regex found the problem:

\s<\?php

Hope this helps someone.
