Of course you also need in make.conf a line like this:

INPUT_DEVICES=evdev synaptics

This is the new (latest, AFAIK) way to override evdev and select
specific drivers and features for X server.

Works for me on my Lenovo Edge. Use the new InputClass section rather
than InputDevice in the config. Make sure to use 'MatchIsTouchpad
on' to match the touchpad.

 Thanks for the responses folks. Neither suggestion made a difference;
 I disabled the AllowEmptyInput option, ensured xf86-input-evdev, and
 then removed all references to the trackpoint in the xorg.conf file.

 It's worth noting that if I configure the InputDevice (commented in
 the email below) to TrackPoint it works without issues (but then the
 trackpad doesn't work).

 Any other thoughts?

 All,

 Has anyone gotten both the trackpad and trackpoint on a t400 to work
 simultaneously? I can't seem to get it to work. Here are the relevant
 sections of my xorg.conf file.

 Section ServerLayout

     Screen      0  Screen0 0 0
     InputDevice    Keyboard0 CoreKeyboard
     #InputDevice    TrackPoint CorePointer

 Section InputDevice

 If Mick's idea doesn't work, make sure you have xf86-input-evdev installed,
 and remove anything about the Trackpoint from xorg.conf.  Evdev should find
 and configure the Trackpoint automatically (for sufficiently large values of
 should).
