As far as I know, the ability to drag and drop was never implemented upstream. In Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex, drag and drop relied in a patch written by the Debian X Task Force, and you'll have to port that patch to evtouch-0.8.8. I found the same issue trying to compile evtouch-0.8.8 for Intrepid Ibex, and I stopped there because I didn't know how to port the damn patch.
