Looks like my patch to make gpm automatically pickup the external mouse when
it is plugged in or removed is not going to be in the official tree.  Sorry
folks, but you'll still have to patch gpm until a new maintainer is found (if
you want the functionality provided by that patch).

I lost track of all the contributions, and finally decided to give up
maintainance (not for this reason alone, there have been more real
reasons).

I'll add your patch in the contrib directory, so if someone will
take over gpm they'll find it.
