The compile went ok.  I used command line:
inputattach --daemon --baud 1200 -msc /dev/ttyUSB0
It accepted the baud rate option this time however the middle button
still does not work.  The pointer freezes when the middle button is
down.

So, everything works, except the middle button ?

Just checking, is this one in the kernel:

# grep MOUSE_SERIAL /boot/config-`uname -r`
CONFIG_MOUSE_SERIAL=y

The response is:  CONFIG_MOUSE_SERIAL=m

If done as a module, you need to
modprobe sermouse

This produced no response.

I ran gpm-mouse-test again.  That program seems to have major
problems.  It can't even detect the baud rate which I know to be 1200.

Forget about that program then, it doesn't help you.

Looking at inputattach man page could you give the option

*-ms*,*--mshack*
     3-button mouse in Microsoft mode.

a try?

Cannot say much about that, but there is a -sun variant also.
You have to try around.
I will try the sun protocol later today and maybe a few others. I am not good a guessing games.

If you cannot make inputattach to work, you can
. go for the old mouse driver and edit xorg.conf
. reverse engineer the protocol used and make code to handle that
