Public bug reported:

On my mid-2009 MacBook Pro, running Precise since alpha with continual
updates, middle-clicks have recently stopped working.

Normally on these laptops, pushing down the trackpad with one finger is
a left-click; pushing it down with two fingers is a right-click; and
pushing it down with three fingers is a middle-click.

Of these, the middle-click gesture stopped working.  The other two still
work.  I don't know what it's trying to do instead of middle-click, but
it's trying to do something.  When I press down with 3 fingers on the
desktop, the mouse pointer vanishes as with a normal click, but dragging
with the 3 fingers pushed down does not seem to do anything.

I have “enable mouse clicks with touchpad” disabled — that's tapping,
whereas this touchpad can physically click down.  I tried disabling two-
finger scroll but it made no difference.
