Thanks for the report. This is a Komodo bug, which is triggered by a 
strange character (0x10) in the taxonomy_manager.admin.inc file (line 
2264). Komodo's codeintel system uses XML files for storing the scanned 
PHP data, but Komodo does not correctly escape the this 0x10 character, 
which leads to an error upon trying to load this data.

I've logged a Komodo bug on this problem here:

No, Komodo does not offer a nice way to customize the files that are 
scanned by the codeintel system, another bug on this here:
http://bugs.activestate.com/show_bug.cgi?id=74765

The way you can do this (partially) is to disable the Komodo codeintel 
preference "Include all files and directories from the project base 
directory", and then add all the directories you wish to be scanned 
through the project's "Languages->PHP->PHP Directories" preferences.

Cheers,
Todd
