When creating VMs that have an '=' in the DN, there seem to be parsing problems, causing it to not be parsed correctly. For example, "/C=CA/O=Grid/OU=westgrid.ca/CN=Bob Oblaw_97/Email=boblaw@univ.ca" gets parsed as "/C=CA/O=Grid/OU=westgrid.ca/CN=Bob Oblaw_97/Email\=boblaw@univ.ca" (Note the escaped '=').

This seems to happen when using the -n, -c, -k flags in nimbus-new-user. The -s flag seems to work.
