Yep.

I wrote a little program to "listen" to the mouse.  Here is the output.

Here is the mouse movement:

87 18 ff 00 00 | 20 00 00
87 18 ff 00 00 | 20 00 00
87 18 ff 00 00 | 20 00 00
87 18 ff 00 00 | 20 00 00
87 18 ff 00 00 | 20 00 00
87 08 01 00 00 | 20 00 00
87 08 00 00 00 | 20 00 00
83 08 00 00 00 | 20 00 00
83 08 00 00 00 | 20 00 00
83 28 00 00 00 | 20 00 00
87 ff fe 00 00 | 20 00 00
87 ff fd 00 00 | 20 00 00
87 ff fd 00 00 | 20 00 00

And here are pressing and releasing of button 1, then 2:

83 00 00 00 00 | 20 00 00
87 00 00 00 00 | 20 00 00
86 00 00 00 00 | 20 00 00
87 00 00 00 00 | 20 00 00

The first 5 bytes are read from the /dev/pms0 device, the remaining
three are the contents of the mouseinfo structure after performing an
ioctl to fetch it.

Something seems amiss here.
