I think I'll try the "-t ps/2" for moused as well and see if I avoid
it in the future.  I never had this happen under FreeBSD 3.[45]-STABLE
in 8 months of daily use.  At least it is good to know I can
kill/restart moused and avoid a reboot... I should have thought of
that!

Here's how mine is reported by the kernel:

psm0: <PS/2 Mouse> irq 12 on atkbdc0
psm0: model Generic PS/2 mouse, device ID 0

It is a Logitech MouseMan 3-button ps/2 mouse.
