Eric,
The mouse does work. See the mail list archives. You can use moused to
access the mouse in the console so:
moused -t mousesystems -p /dev/cuau3
This will allow you to use the mouse under Xorg as /dev/sysmouse.
If you don't need to use the mouse in the console, you can use
/dev/cuau3.
The fact that you can't use a different keymap to the us own and the
Leds don't work are known issues.
