Knowing that NSIS can call external programs, a simple call like this
should do the trick in XP:

netsh firewall add portopening protocol=tcp port=9102 name="Bacula-FD"

Of course, the user should probably be asked for confirmation (or have
an option) before doing this. I personally do not like software that
opens ports on my machine without asking me.
