You are on the right track. We addressed the issue for our general Input::Session_component, which is also used by fb_sdl. Please have a look at https://github.com/genodelabs/genode/blob/master/repos/os/include/input/component.h#L47 The fix is not part of Genode 14.11 but already in our master branch since January 9 2015. So you could just 'git cherry-pick 0f18ecc142' or simply apply the commit as patch to your source tree.
