I've got a Windows 7 machine which has a left-handed mouse, so the
mouse is set to "swap primary and secondary" buttons. I've got an
Gentoo XFCE machine with has a left-handed mouse, so it too is set to
swap mouse buttons.

When I us rdesktop on the XFCE machine to connect to the Win7 machine
the mouse buttons end up backwards.  On the windows machine I have to
_uncheck_ the "swap mouse buttons" to get my left-hand mouse to work
correctly.

I've asked google, and there seem to have been rdesktop patches
floating around to fix this problem for many years (apparently this
used to work in v1.5 and got broken in v1.6?). I assume there is a
"real" fix by now, but damned if I can figure out what it is.

What is it?
