Public bug reported:

I have a Lenovo Thinkpad Twist convertible ultrabook. The tablet mode
(touchscreen-only operation, keyboard folded away) get continuously
working better.

Now I have hit a problem with XBMC: When using XBMC in full-screen mode
when tapping on the screen, the mouse cursor jumps into the lower right
corner and so the taps on GUI elements do not get recognized. Operating
with keyboard or external mouse works correctly and after closing XBMC
the touchscreen works correctly again. Using the built-in touchpad of a
laptop the cursor is too fast.

A workaround (perhaps a fix) for both the touchscreen and touchpad
problems is adding

export SDL_MOUSE_RELATIVE=0

right before the call of xbmc.bin in the /usr/bin/xbmc script.
