My plan to "fix" this bug is to make a version of synergy 1.4 available in wheezy-backports. As another workaround, 1.3 synergyc can talk to 1.4 synergys, but this would require switching the mouse and keyboard to a different system. I suspect this will become a problem more and more with other distros as well; upstream considers 1.3 to be obsolete, and other distros are updating synergy as well. So, I consider the existence of a backport for wheezy to be the best resolution we can hope for.
