Warning to the wise: don't assume XFree86 bypasses moused/sysmouse

Clueless me has been failing to get 1,2,1+2 out of X. Only on
realizing that moused -3 made X11's Emulate3Buttons redundant did
this work.

It might help a newbie or other low clue density space (l)user if
somebody documents in either X or sysmouse/moused that if you do
the -3 trick, the (synthetic) mouse events sent to X *are* 3 button
enabled already.

doh!

cheers
