I've replicated this issue using fvwm on amd64 and have found the cause.

After importing the svn repository in to git and "git bisect"ing, the
problem appears to be due to the first hunk of upstream r4872 (fixing
their #716); the attached diff makes the mouse work as expected in my
testing.

I've uploaded pre-built amd64 binaries to
http://people.debian.org/~adsb/libsdl1.2/ if they're any use in
confirming the fix.

Regards,

Adam
