'boot2docker init' fails with unicode characters in user's home folder path

[RomanSaveljev]

The issue presents on Windows 7 at least. I have boot2docker-cli 1.4.1

C:\Users\Käkä>boot2docker -v init

My user name is Käkä and it tries to create the disk image in the wrong directory.

chcp tells 850. boot2docker still fails when I switch the codepage to 65001 (unicode). Perhaps, there is something wrong in the CLI code itself?
