To summarize: With only default drivers, both devices work, but tapping on the touchpad doesn't emulate a left-click. With psmouse.proto=imps, the pointing stick doesn't work, but tapping on the touchpad emulates a left-click. With the synaptics driver (http://w1.894.telia.com/~u89404340/touchpad/), psmouse.proto=imps causes X to fail to start. With the synaptics driver and without psmouse.proto=imps, the touchpad works and does all the cool synaptics stuff, but I couldn't get the pointing stick to work. It turns out that I had misconfigured /etc/X11/xorg.conf. The example config entry for the second mouse at http://w1.894.telia.com/~u89404340/best5650/XF86Config-4 did the trick.
