-// HACK: Xlib.h (included from gtk/gdk headers and directly) uses #defines on
-// common names such as "Status", "BadRequest" or "Response", causing SFML
-// headers to be completely broken.
-//
-// We work around that issue by including SFML first before X11 headers. This
-// is terrible, but such is the life with Xlib.
