Our GLib builds depend on `if_nametoindex`, which is not available in Windows XP.  I believe that dependency can be disabled at compile-time.  Our build script also includes some [workarounds](https://github.com/openslide/openslide-winbuild/blob/0b49b8d3ca0eb9e49e104d97893a4e504a4004a8/build.sh#L499) for GLib build problems, which may be forcing GLib to use `if_nametoindex` when it would not otherwise do so.\r\n\r\nWindows XP is out of security support, so I don't expect that we'll fix this upstream.  However, you may be able to fix it yourself by modifying `build.sh` and rebuilding.  If so, please post your modifications here so they can be used by others."}}
