you can work around this with Option "CorePointer" and Option "CoreKeyboard" in the Device section, rather than doing it in ServerLayout.
Comment 4 Daniel Stone 2007-04-08 03:34:25 UTC 
workaround pushed to master.

I may have misunderstood the workaround, but it doesn't seem to work
Comment 8 Peter Hutterer 2008-03-01 19:59:58 UTC 
Option "CorePointer" "True"

in your InputDevice section.
