Xorg now ignoring input configuration in xorg.conf

After a recent dist-upgrade of my Debian testing system, my
EmulateWheel button is no longer acknowledged in X.

I filed a bug report, only to be told that it's not a bug, but that
evdev is handling all input devices, and that the change in behaviour is
not a bug.  (I disagree - if you make a change that invalidates a
configuration file, it is a bug.)

That is fine for what it is worth, but the question now is, how do I
configure my Logitech Marble Mouse to use one of its buttons for scroll
wheel emulation?  The evdev man page is not as helpful as I was hoping.
