After having run into this problem twice within 15 minutes I noticed
exactly what I was doing when it happened, and tried repeating it.  In
both cases, I was moving out of a firefox window on my Screen0 to a
window on Screen1.

After a little experimentation, now I can pretty much cause the mouse to
quite working withing 30 seconds of trying.  Open up two firefox windows
and put one each screen, leaving a small gap of background between the
firefox window and the edge of the screen.  Now flick your mouse between
both firefox windows (I have focus following the mouse).  For me, within
20 flicks the mouse stops working and starts misbehaving.

I've also gotten it to start misbehaving with two emacs windows, but
firefox seems the best choice for reproducing it quickly for me.
Someone else should give the above method a try and confirm it
reproduces the problem in a short time.  Having a quick way of
reproducing the problem might help this bug along.
