Oh dear, oh dear...

Very sorry for the wasted time.

When I tried the wired mouse I did not actually unplug the wireless
mouse receiver, so it was still generating scroll events every 200ms
while over a window (presumably being ignored by the kernel when it was
over unscrollable things like the background and panels.

Quick removal and replacement of mouse battery and problem solved.

As partial reparation, could I recommend evemu-tools to anyone who
doesn't know about it? Cleans up that nasty raw output from cat
/dev/input/mouseX and adds times. Problem solved immediately with its
help.

OK, I can't explain why Knoppix didn't also do it, the mouse was still
generating masses of scroll events. That really messed up the
troubleshooting. Knoppix doesn't have evemu-tools, but the raw mouse
events were enough by that time.
