Comment (by artyom):

 You are welcome to provide a patch that provides an adoption for WinStore.

 Requirements:

 - Automatic detection of build for WinStore (if feasible)
 - If impossible to detect WinStore - provide boost.build option to build
 for Windows store
 - Make sure the tests pass on this platform

 Than I'll apply such a patch. I'm more than sure that `getenv` would be
 the least of all the problems and many test would likely to fail for
 different reasons.

 So you are more than welcome to provide a **complete** solution. I can't
 provide it as I neither have Windows 8 not interested in it.
