I was notified of this bug since the uTouch framework is now used for
some input handling in X in Maverick. I am 99% sure this is not a uTouch
induced issue since:

1. A kernel reversion fixes the issue.
2. The X Synaptics input module is used, which is not uTouch enabled.

This is likely due to the following commit, which enables ALPS support
for the trackpad instead of the bare IMPS/2 protocol. This is confirmed
by the Xorg logs from the different kernels:
