I think it should be default behavior in case of "-m" option
There is no sense to enable moused only on ttyv0.
Here is a small patch for /etc/rc.i386
*** rc.i386.orig Mon Jun 22 19:57:04 1998
--- rc.i386 Mon Jun 22 19:57:56 1998

if [ "X${moused_enable}" = X"YES" ] ; then
echo -n ' moused'
moused ${moused_flags} -p ${moused_port} -t ${moused_type}
! vidcontrol <${viddev} -m on
fi
echo '.'
