Well, the question is: Why?

It does.

xorg.conf(5) says:
Option "Core Pointer"
When this is set, the input device is installed as the core (primary)
pointer device.  There must be exactly one core
pointer.  *If this option is not set here, or in the ServerLayout
section, or from the -pointer command  line  option,
then  the  first  input  device that is capable of being used as a
core pointer will be selected as the core pointer.*

Please note the part which has been enclosed by asterisks. According
to this the options are _not needed_ because Xorg should be able to
find it out itself and apart from this I guess that Xorg think this,
too:

(==) The core pointer device wasn't specified explicitly in the layout.
        Using the first mouse device.
(==) The core keyboard device wasn't specified explicitly in the layout.
        Using the first keyboard device.

After this is says:
(**) Configured Mouse: always reports core events

And as already said it worked in Etch so this is clearly a regression
(from the documented behaviour).

Best Regards,
Patrick
