And I find this rather odd.  Both Solaris and FreeBSD (running in  
Parallels) see all three buttons on any external mouse I use.  It's  
only Plan9 where the oddball behaviour persists.

Someone needs to get annoyed enough about this to add some debugging  
code to the P9 mouse driver and find out just what events the kernel  
is getting from Parallels.
