I tried the cumulative patch and managed it to compile (though I needed
to remove 2 struct declarations from one header file and add -lm to
LDFLAGS).

It even works, but there is something wrong. Left button
doesn't respond in evdev mode. I don't know gpm source much,
so I'm not able to fix it myself. The event is read by gpm, the state of
the button is toggled, but i dunno why selecting isn't started.
