dnu restore on core clr using linux fails on getting the console color

[vlesierse]

While adjusting the CI tests for the Docker image I encountered a problem with dnu restore on the Core CLR version of dnx using Linux.

See PR: aspnet/aspnet-docker#57

Yea dnu doesn't work on core clr. You need mono. It'll be a while before it works.

Why not just die gracefully here?
