See here, your config is asking for 5 button then....

...but set as 9 buttons instead 5 buttons now, so... It ignores your  
configure. I have a same issue as with my mouse, so I had to use a patch  
to fix it. Grab patch-fix_my_mouse and put in  
x11-servers/xorg-server/files/ and reinstall it. Hope, it will solving  
your problem too. I have filled out my comments and everything in  
freedesktop.org bugzilla.

http://people.freebsd.org/~mezz/diff/patch-fix_my_mouse
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5483

This problem even exists in Linux either. You can add your comment or any  
detail in bugzilla if you want to.

Cheers,
