It appears that UDEV auto-configuration backend disables "mouse" driver when  
"AutoAddDevices" option is enabled so we have to turn it off.

Following snippet forces Xorg on my laptop to nearly pre-evdev behavior so you
can try it too. It works for me even without keyboard section: 


Section "ServerFlags"
        Option          "AutoAddDevices" "false"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "PS/2 mouse"
        Option          "CorePointer"
        Option          "Protocol" "auto"
        Option          "Device" "/dev/psm0"
        Driver          "mouse"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "System mouse"
        Option          "Protocol" "auto"
        Option          "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
        Driver          "mouse"
        Option          "AutoServerLayout" "true"
EndSection

P.S. moused should NOT be enabled in /etc/rc.conf.
