moby: Docker: invalid tar header

I’ve created an image for docker on my Ubuntu 14.04 with the latest version of Docker (1.6.2):

sudo docker save 'something' > something-image.tar

On a mac I installed the latest Boot2docker and run this

docker load < something-image.tar

Which gives this error:

FATA[0489] Error response from deamon: Untar exit status 1 archive/tar: 
invalid tar header

Getting the same error in Windows Boot2docker. But if I try to load this image in Ubuntu, everything works just fine.
