The above settings interact badly with the "-z 4" option of moused.  If
you have moused interpret buttons 4 and 5, leave off the ZAzisMapping
from your X server configuration, otherwise you will not receive wheel
events.

My moused config (in /etc/rc.conf) is:

moused_type="auto"
moused_enable="YES"
moused_flags="-m 1=3 -m 3=1 -z 4"

My XF86Config is identical to above with the ZAxisMapping option
commented out.
