Well I guess that would be your problem.  Assuming you've updated your ports
tree, something like

portmaster --no-confirm -d /usr/ports/x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse/

and restarting X should fix it although it doesn't seem like a jump from an
RC to RELEASE should cause this.  Did you update other parts of the system
as well?
