Thank you all.

I do not have evdev in /etc/make.conf, or a /dev/input/eventX in my xorg.conf.  
In the former I have "keyboard mouse synaptics" and in the latter I have:
==================================================
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Mouse0"
        Driver      "synaptics"
        Option      "Protocol" "SynPS/2"
        Option      "InputFashion" "Mouse"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
        Option       "Name" "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad"
        Option       "SHMConfig" "on"
        Option       "Vendor" "0002"
        Option      "ZAxisMapping"      "4 5"
        Option      "Emulate3Buttons"   "True"
        Option      "Buttons"   "3"
EndSection

Section "Input Device"
        Identifier  "Mouse1"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
        Option      "InputFashion" "Mouse"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
        Option       "Name" "GenPS/2 Genius Mouse"
        Option       "Vendor" "0002"
        Option      "ZAxisMapping"      "4 5"
        Option      "Emulate3Buttons"   "False"
        Option      "Buttons"   "9"
EndSection
==================================================

I remember emerging it when I was trying to get my touchpad working, but I 
guess that means that I can now remove it.
