Cannot run consul in windows docker container

[prochnowc]

consul version for both Client and Server

Server: 0.7.4

Operating system and Environment details

Windows Server Core

Description of the Issue (and unexpected/desired result)

Consul crashes on startup when data directory is linked through docker volume.
This seems to be an issue of Go which is fixed in 1.8:
golang/go#15978

Reproduction steps

Run consul in windows docker container with data directory linked to host filesystem.

[slackpad]

Consul upgraded to Go 1.8 as part of the 0.8.0 release, so it should have picked up this fix.
