ok. i commented out ZAxisMapping. i tried it twice with two XF86Configs
looking like

    Identifier  "Mouse1" 
    Driver      "mouse" 
    Option      "Protocol"      "auto" 
    Option      "Device"        "/dev/sysmouse" 
#    Option     "ZAxisMapping"  "4 5" 
    Option      "Buttons"       "5" 

with the above config i ran moused -p /dev/psm0 -z 4 -r high -a 2

    Identifier  "Mouse1" 
    Driver      "mouse" 
    Option      "Protocol"      "auto" 
    Option      "Device"        "/dev/psm0" 
#    Option     "ZAxisMapping"  "4 5" 
    Option      "Buttons"       "5" 

with this config i ran killall moused.

in both configs the three buttons work fine but the wheels dont work.

i am beginning to think that i have offended the gods in some minor way.
i shall offer a sacrifice of easter choclate and see if that helps.

thanks for your help,
chris moline
