Windows 8 build 8888 (win8 gdr soc intel)

The x86 compile of this build was leaked by KiTTY as a "Christmas present" on 2014-12-24. This build is a RTM candidate, but was rejected in favor of 9200 also due to the build number not being divisible by 16, a requirement that was only removed with Windows 10 version 1511 (with build 10586 being the RTM). It is not much different from the retail version of 9200, expect that it does not contain any Modern apps minus Store and Internet Explorer. Recently x64 (amd64chk) compile of this build leaked.
