I wonder if this would be explained by the following changelog entry:
xfree86 (4.2.1-12) unstable; urgency=high
[...]
* patch #097: new; add Bartosz Zapalowski's patch for supporting wheel mice
with large numbers of buttons; the ZAxisMapping option "pushes up" the
other buttons so that the mouse behaves sanely. This addresses problems
with how the X server parses wheel data from at least some devices that
use the ExplorerPS/2 protocol. (Closes: #166550)

How recently did you notice this change in scroll wheel behavior? What
version of the xfree86 packages were you running previously?
