I have uploaded the 2.4.x git branch from upstream SFML to experimental
which should fix this issue. Can someone test it please? You may have to
wait a few hours from now before it appears on the mirrors.

I'll upload it to unstable when there's an actual release, which
shouldn't be too long now (ha).

Thanks,
James
