What's under xsrc/xfree is just an import of Xfree86 4.0.2, nothing
more, nothing less.
wsmouse worked with XFree86-4.0.1, so I don't see why it shouldn't
work with 4.0.2. /etc/XF86Config will take either the old-style or the
new-style options:
Section "Pointer"
Protocol "wsmouse"
Device "/dev/wsmouse0"
BaudRate 1200
EndSection
or
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "Wsmouse"
Option "Device" "/dev/wsmouse0"
EndSection
