Okay, I can confirm that either one of the following will fix the issue (Using an AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint):
1. Remove the whole section that defines the touchpad, and the corresponding entry in ServerLayout.
2. Set the NoTrapSignals server flag to true
3. Set the AutoAddDevices server flag to false.

Here's something I noticed: "xinput list" shows that there are two entries for the touchpad. One that is defined in xorg.conf, and the other, presumably auto-detected. The one in xorg.conf will have whatever identifier given to it.

On a slightly unrelated matter, disabling AutoAddDevices fixes Bug #264196.
