Bug description:
When the multi-finger tapping is on, and when two-finger scrolling quickly in a window, the right-click menu often appears. Apparently the two-finger scroll and two-finger tap gets entangled. A small patch to the mactel version of synaptics is attached.

Unfortunately, not knowing anything about this code, I cannot say much about regression risks with the patch. To me, it simply looks like an unwanted line in the code.
