I have not noticed this behavior (FC4 x86_64 R3000z).  The synaptics
driver works very well for me.  Occasionally I might get a stray tap,
but that's because I accidentaly touched the touchpad slightly. 
Perhaps some of your settings are too sensitive.  What does your
xorg.conf look like (just the synaptics section)?  You could enable
the SHMConfig (or whatever the option is) and adjust things on the fly
till you get them the way you like.
