I guess this is an ad-hoc build version to test ubuntu patches.

There have been a major change in version number from sid to experimental,
from 0.14.7~git20070706-3 to 0.99.3-3 My guess overall is that there are
several defaults that have been modified (wrongly, IMHO). So this problem as
you have explained it could be broke down into the three topics you mention.
I also have found this problem, on xserver-xorg-input-synaptics 0.99.3-3,
xserver-xorg-core:2:1.5.99.902-1 and xserver-xorg:1:7.4~5. I've mostly deal
with it.
For 1), I've set VertEdgeScroll=1 and HorizEdgeScroll=1 which I guess is
what 106_always_enable_vert_edge_scroll.patch does
2) is basically http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=497523
which workarounded as explained there. 104_always_enable_tapping.patch is my
guess from ubuntu patches.
3) should also be a consequence of a change of defaults. I don't really care
about that much, but I suppose tweaking MinSpeed, MaxSpeed and AccelFactor
should work.
HTH,
