I know that and that is exactly the Bug. There was only ONE Pointer
device configured for the output above.

I heard that and I did for the test. But it doesn't work. X just detects
two USD mouses where only one is configured. That is a wrong behaviour.

Please don't. The bug still persists and hold me from upgrading to the
newest X server.
Also you didn't address the problem with the '|' char ('alt gr'+'<').
Try to use that new X server on a IBM Thinkpad T43p and you will have
the same problems I had.
