Comment (by ixSci <beholder@…>):

 Still WIndows 8.1 doesn't support it for the Store apps. Don't you think
 it is better to add a workaround to have a possibility to use Boost.Locale
 with WinStore rather than just ignore it? All the more you can just cut
 the getenv part of Boost.Locale without any harm for the end user if he
 doesn't use environmental variables for the locale determination.
