I've made some (hopefully) interesting progress:
The firmware version seems to be 8, using the formula in the
elantech_set_properties function, so I modified the file like this to
force it to set hw_version to 4:
clayton@ultrabook:~/Downloads$ diff -Naur

And now getting some response from synclient:

I have no clue if everything is working as normal yet, though it appears the

and report back
