I am going to merge new mouse support code from 3.0-CURRENT to
2.2-STABLE.  The mse, psm, syscons/sysmouse drivers and moused will be
modified.

I will commit updated man pages too.  Please refer to the man pages
for mouse(4), mse(4), psm(4), sysmouse(4), rc.conf(5) and moused(8)
for details.

The change involves slight modification of some of console and mouse
ioctls.  However, binary compatibility support is provided, thus, old
moused and existing programs which accesses mice will run as-is on
the updated kernel.

But, you are still advised to `make world' and rebuild the kernel so
that the new moused will take advantage of reshaped console/mouse
ioctls.

Thank you.
