Patch to mouse accel code

I wrote a patch that uses the same method to prevent accumulation of
rounding errors in the threshold acceleration code as the exponential
acceleration does.
The main advantage of this method (compared to not saving the
remainders) is that slowing down the mouse, e.g. "xset m 1/3 1" works
without problems (with the current implementation, the pointer doesn't
move when the mouse is moved slowly). As mice get higher and higher
resolution, this will be appreciated by many users.
I created a Bugzilla entry and attached the proposed patch. It would be
nice if someone with commit access could review it and add it to cvs.
