I think you just add the line
InputDevice "your_other_mouse" "SendCoreEvents"
in the ServerLayout section, and add an InputDevice section defining
your_other_mouse, but don't quote me on that, as I only have one mouse.
(Trackball, but XFree86 isn't picky.) I believe whichever one is the
CorePointer will determine window focus, but ICBW.
