(Get the code!)
OK, I feel stupid now. My middle-click functionality is broken because the physical button inside the mouse is failing. Apparently clicking a mouse button 8 hours a day for 3 years causes a certain amount of wear. I tested the mouse on another computer, it had the same problem, and on a whim I tried just pressing down harder, which suddenly made it work. The way it failed so abruptly and specifically (the rest of the mouse is fine) made me sure the problem was somehow software related.
