Unexpected token windows

See original GitHub issue

I’ve used this loader with great success on Linux/MacOS, but when I try to use it on Windows, I get this type of error message on all my SVG files:

ERROR in ./src/client/images/icons/ic_description_black_48px.svg
Module parse failed: C:\Users\<path>\src\client\images\icons\ic_description_black_48px.svg Unexpected token (1:0)
You may need an appropriate loader to handle this file type.
