16 Yes, I did
17 grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log
18 before posting. And there was no mention of a mouse.

26 Yes, I upgraded several packages. Among relevant are:
27 x11-base/xorg-server-1.12.99.902
28 x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev-2.7.1
29 x11-drivers/xf86-input-synaptics-1.6.2
30 x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse-1.7.2
31 x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard-1.6.1
32 x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev-2.7.1
33 sys-fs/udev-186
34
35 I also removed the previously existing
36 '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/25-mouse.conf' file and tried without it.
37 However it did not help.
38
39 I have just booted my previous kernel-3.4.5, and the mouse works fine
40 with the very same set of X-related programs and settings.
