This should be "just" a case of recompiling on Windows XP. I don't
have access to a Windows XP machine so can't do this.

It should just work, assuming you don't want authentication.

No, you must use mosquitto_passwd to create the password hashes. (or
you could always modify the source to assume unhashed passwords)
