Ok, so that wasn't it.  Here's my mouse section from xorg.conf.

Section "InputDevice"
       Identifier      "Configured Mouse"
       Driver          "mouse"
       Option          "CorePointer"
       Option          "Device"                "/dev/input/mice"
       Option          "Protocol"              "ImPS/2"
       Option          "Emulate3Buttons"       "true"
EndSection

I remember having a problem with dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg when
trying to figure out the issue.  Something along the lines of an error
saying that dpkg wouldn't over-write the existing xorg.conf because it
had been manually modified.  I think that behavior changed at some
point, but I couldn't tell you when.
