Point & Click works, as do buttons 1 through 3. (both mice). When using the scroll wheel... well... hilarity ensues. The problem being that the events are completely off. Scrolling down sends me all the way back in the browser tab history. So I guess I only need to tell Xorg how to arrange the buttons correctly.
I've searched high and wide but all solutions offered in the threads that can be found so far haven't cut any cheese. It seems as if Xorg sees the mouse options I care to enter into xorg.conf - only to completely ignore them.

EDITH See last post. Solved by using the Option "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 7 8 ..." in the corresponding InputDevice Section.
I deliberately have eliminated hal from my make.conf, as it is being merged into udev. It is still installed - and running currently - until it can be safely assumed that everything that used it was turned to udev. Call it backwards compatibility paranoia...
