[issue1241] xf86-input-mouse floating point problems

[Simon 'corecode' Schubert (via DragonFly issue tracker)]

New submission from Simon 'corecode' Schubert <corecode at fs.ei.tum.de>:

xf86-input-mouse uses floating point values to keep track of the mouse pointer.
 Sometimes these values wind up as NAN.  This should not ever happen out of the
blue.  I believe there is some problem with the FPU and task switching and/or
signals.

A workaround is attached.
