It works. Thanks. I applied it and pushed to git.

You are correct about /dev/input/mice. Unfortunately for SDL, libgpm
is GPLed, so is incompatible with SDL's LGPL license (depending on
libgpm would make the whole of SDL GPL). There was some talk about
that on the SDL/GPM (making libgpm LGPL'ed) mailing list back in 2005
but nothing changed.

Anyway, gpm is mostly useful for dosemu in terminal mode (on the
console); for SDL-on-console /dev/input/mice is ok.
