Uh oh, bad timing... The next release 2.5.2 introduces the first non-XP compatible code. It's in a seldom used corner of the code and it doesn't require functions unavailable on XP, so it will very likely not break 99% of the existing applications yet. But the next release after will very likely break XP support entirely.
