Windows 8 and Labview 2013 FPGA

I installed Labview 2013 including the FPGA design suite on a Windows 8 (x64) host. I was surprised to see Windows 8 on the list of supported OS as I was aware that up to this day no Xilinx design suite supported Windows 8.

But as a matter of fact it didn't took long before I hit:

ERROR: Simulator:861 - Failed to link the design

following this tutorial while clicking on check syntax (using one of the VHDL file provided with the tutorial). The error is clearly linked to a lack of Windows 8 compatibility from the XIlinx tools running underneath. Is there a known workaround? Thanks.
