Success at last!  With "flags 0x400" in the config, I get:

Probing for devices on the ISA bus:
atkbd: the current kbd controller command byte 0047
atkbd: keyboard ID 0x41ab (2)
kbdc: RESET_KBD return code:00fa
kbdc: RESET_KBD status:00aa
sc0 on isa
sc0: fb0 kbd0
sc0: VGA color <16 virtual consoles, flags=0x0>
atkbdc0 at 0x60-0x6f on motherboard
atkbd0 irq 1 on isa
kbd0: atkbd0, AT 101/102 (2), config:0x0, flags:0x3d0000
psm0: current command byte:0047

psm: status ffffffff c0262384 c02e3f68

psm0: failed to get status.
psm0 irq 12 flags 0x400 on isa
psm0: model Generic PS/2 mouse, device ID 255-ffffffff, 2 buttons

psm0: syncmask:00, syncbits:00
sio0: irq maps: 0x1 0x11 0x1 0x1

And the mouse then works!


I also discovered that, with the old kernel, I could boot the system with
the 'good' mouse, and then unplug that mouse and plug in the 'bad'
one.  Often it would fail with "psmintr: out of sync", but sometimes it
would then work OK.
