..this worked in 1.1.3 and with 1.0.2. I can't easily regress because I now have a video card that doesn't like DOSEMU in console mode (hence my interest in the new releases).
Please be more specific. Do you have a video card that doesn't like the old dosemu's, but OK with the new ones? Some Radeon?
If yes, then the fix can be easily backported, so that you can do a regress.
Or do you have a video card that doesn't work with dosemu in console no matter what the version is?

The second, less important issue is the mouse.. it has inertia. I think this happened in one of the earlier 1.1.3.x builds, too.
In console, or under X? If in console, then it is because now mouse uses a large event queue, the events from which gets thrown to PIC one-after-another. This works rather slow, but it is DPMI-safe. Before, the events were passed to the driver immediately (no queue, no PIC), but that caused crashes.
If it is under X, then it is a bug as the queue is not used (though the PIC is).

cursor will continue to circle for about three more seconds!
That's too much even for the queue. Maybe setting $_hogthreshold to 0 can help?

Has anyone else seen this effect?
Not really, even though in theory it is now possible (under console).
