Command console is crashing if any system user name contains accented character

[imincik1]

Command console is crashing if any user account in system contains accented character (for example "Ľudka").

GRASS Version: 7.0.0beta OS version: Windows 8

To reproduce, try to create user "Ľudka" in you operating system, launch GRASS and try to run some command (for example: d.rast map= ...) by typing it in Command console.
