Hrm.  With a little bit more investigation with a couple of wired mice,
it appears to be something to do with the motherboard/controller
combination.

Plugging in both a bog-standard Logitech corded mouse, and even one of
those wonderful (?) Apple mice, gives me relevant information from
usbdevs, but exactly the same response from usbd/moused, ie: pointer
appears, occasionally moves slightly for a fraction of a second of
motion, then freezes solid.

Given that the all of the mice work just fine with both Windows (32 and
64-bit) and Ubuntu (amd64), it does seem likely that it's a
FreeBSD-specific problem, but I'm now completely at a loss as to where
to look further.
