Local storage doesn't work with ie8 in gwt 2.4

I know that there is local storage support in ie8 but when I do
"Storage.getLocalStorageIfSupported()" in gwt 2.4, I get "null" value
for ie8, but it works for other browsers (chrome, firefox & safari).
Does anyone have any idea, what am I doing wrong? Do I need to handle
ie8 differently?
