Saved the configuration file to UTF-8 without BOM - after this I got no
complaints from OpenVPN-GUI. Launching OpenVPN from the command prompt
also worked... tls-auth was undefined in the config, and openvpn called
like this:

> openvpn --config ääliö.ovpn --tls-auth ääliö.key 1

Only minor issue was that the command prompt displayed funky characters
instead of the proper ones:

Thanks for the tip, Heiko!
