Thanks ael and Andrian, this is definitely the bug I'm seeing. I
followed the suggestion of setting {Vert,Horiz}ScrollDelta=5 and
{Vert,Horiz}Hysteresis=0, and that does make it useable, though as noted
in the bug report, it's not as smooth as it should be. I may try
downgrading the xorg-xserver-input-synaptics package, which is supposed
to fix the problem.
