synclient -l reports  the same values as in fdi  file. Therefore, I have
just increased the value to get the same behaviour as before. However, I
was  still  unable  to  scroll  because  type "bool"  seems  not  to  be
supported. I have changed to a string value of 1:
 	<merge key="input.x11_options.VertEdgeScroll" type="string">1</merge>

Thanks for your help!

I suggest to add some tips in NEWS.Debian to let users know that options
are now retrieved through HAL. I also had to remove this option:
        Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off"
which was a work around to some other past changes.
