I'm not exactly sure if I'm doing the right things in testing this, but if I am, I don't think it's working.

I did:

git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-input-evdev
git branch --track evdev-2.1-branch origin/evdev-2.1-branch
git checkout evdev-2.1-branch
applied ubuntu's ABI skipping patch (attached)
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install

restarted X

I now see more xinput properties:

Device 'TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint':
 Device Enabled: 1
 Evdev Axis Inversion: 0, 0
 Evdev Reopen Attempts: 10
 Evdev Middle Button Emulation: 0
 Evdev Middle Button Timeout: 50
 Evdev Wheel Emulation: 0
 Evdev Wheel Emulation Axes: 0, 0, 4, 5
 Evdev Wheel Emulation Inertia: 10
 Evdev Wheel Emulation Timeout: 200
 Evdev Wheel Emulation Button: 0
 Evdev Drag Lock Buttons: 0
 Wheel Emulation: 1
 Wheel Emulation Button: 2
 Wheel Emulation Y Axis: 4, 5

(not the default values, I played a little)

I see Wheel Emulation and Evdev Wheel Emulation, but enable either/both doesn't stop button 2 (middle) behaving purely as paste.
