This is happening here too, and all I have is a garden-variety PS/2 mouse.

This is likely to be some obscure race condition, or some timing issue with 
some chipsets, somewhere in the PS/2 mouse kernel or xorg support.

When the mouse goes bonkers, let it go and wait about ten seconds without 
moving or touching the mouse or the keyboard.  It should be fine again.
