Unable to run the example code

[LaSpruca]

Every time I try to run the example code. The application runs for a bit then dies, I then get this error message:

thread 'main' panicked at 'attempted to leave type \`platform::platform::x11::util::input::PointerState\` uninitialized, which is invalid

Here is my Cargo.toml:
