I can't tell but perhaps Mike Kaganski (following <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=112928#c6">comment 6</a>) will find a fix.
About industrial environment, I understand, sometimes editors won't release any
new version and Citrix or similar solutions may be not so easy to use (and have
also a cost).
The cost to migrate may be too high so it can be difficult "to sell" the
migration to the client but still:
- Microsoft doesn't support anymore XP
- there are certainly security flaws which won't be fixed
- I'm not sure antivirus are still efficient for XP
At last, you must know that for every LO major version, supported OS are
debated.
So it's possible WinXP won't be supported by LO in a not so far future.</pre>
