It is the contrary - before the change that added the warning, you couldn't
target XP when using current version of visual studio. Visual studio is
what didn't support XP, the LibreOffice code does.
Only since Visual Studio Update it is possible to compile for XP. It is a
build system thing, just like you cannot run distro built versions of LO on
other distros that are older (or even the older release of the same distro)

One of the goals of tinderboxes is to check compilation on many different
build configurations after all.

Ciao
