Been there, done that. I added uartdtrmouse() in place of
uartspecial(), added a message to tell aux/mouse it's a dtr
mouse and ripped the guts out of aux/mouse so it doesn't
faf around trying to work out what sort of mouse it's got.

If anyone's interested, I can wrap it up and send it as
a Christmas pressie to 9fans.
