I have installed the package from http://packages.debian.org/squeeze-
backports/i386/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/download which does not
contain the Unity MT Grab handles patch. This makes 3 finger tapping to
middle click work again.

So please, remove these patches or modify them to three finger hold
instead of three finger tap for Love Handle activation.

  Running Unity disables Xorg's 3-finger click support (middle click)

Bug description:
  Xorg fails to recognize a 3-finger click as a middle-button-click when
  Unity is running and instead thinks it's a left-click.  This bug only
  happens in Unity 3D. It does not happen with Unity 2D or Gnome Shell.

  Please note this bug is about physically "clicking" a clickpad with 3
  fingers. 3 finger tapping is different and has been intentionally
  overridden in Unity 3D by new gestures.
