wheel mice and abiword

Hi

At present it does not seem that abiword supports wheel mice, like the
Microsoft Intellimouse. Worse, it seems that (accidentally) using
the wheel causes abiword to crash? Is this behaviour reproducible?

I am so in the habit of using the wheel now that I find it all too
simple to try to use it to scroll! I use Linux/x86 + abiword 0.7.4,
installed from .i386.rpm's.

I have a

Protocol "imps/2"
ZAxisMapping 4 5

inside my XF86Config file. Most other apps seem to support this now.

Cheers,
Kev
