xorg-x11-drv-syanptic update makes touch pad vertical scrolling go bonkers.

[Ankur Sinha]

Hello,

The xorg-x11-drv-synaptics-1.5.99.903-1.fc17.x86_64 update in
updates-testing breaks scrolling:

I scroll in evolution, and then change windows. The new window continues
to scroll for quite a while. This is reproducible. Downgrading the
package fixes it. 

This is more troublesome when gnome3 is the DE of choice, since the
scroll effects selection in the "alt tab" application/window switcher
too. So, if you scroll in evolution, and hit alt tab, the "residual"
scroll makes the selection in the window switcher run around like crazy!

I've given the update[1] negative karma already. If any of you can
please reproduce it, please do the same. It causes a  usability fail.
I've also added a screencast to the comment I've given. It's a little
difficult to explain in text :)
