 Have you tested this with another FreeBSD version or another OS, and
 determined that there is an OS for which Win XP *does* see the changes
 made to its own filesystem?  I think this may very well be due to XP's
 disk cache - it may simply assume that there have been no changes since
 the hibernation, because no one is supposed to run anything else while
 XP is hibernated.
 
 G'luck,
 Peter
