Ahh <penny drops>.

Right. So I point moused at /dev/cuaa0, and everything that uses
it at /dev/sysmouse?  Ok, that makes sense.  Sorry for the
trouble (actually, it took me a bit to work out /dev/sysmouse as
it was until I thought to look in MAKEDEV from -current rather
than the one I had installed which mentioned nothing). Lacking
man page for moused didn't help. :)

Thanks for the pointers.
