Support for more than five mouse buttons in Sawfish is broken
and apparently interferes with multi-layout xkb configurations.  See
<URL:http://mail.gnome.org/archives/sawfish-list/2007-November/msg00012.html>
and subsequent discussion.

Sawfish needs to be fixed to support extra mouse buttons without
messing with the modifier state (buttons after 5 do not have modifier
bits, Sawfish just pretends they do).  Ideally this would be a job for
someone who uses a multi-layout xkb config and a mouse with more than
five buttons.
