Could you instrument this chunk of xterm.c:

		      /* See the comment on top of x_cache_xi_devices
			 for more details on how scroll wheel movement
			 is reported on XInput 2.  */
		      delta = x_get_scroll_valuator_delta (dpyinfo, device,
							   i, *values, &val);
		      values++;

by adding:

		      printf ("%g\n", delta);

afterwards?  Then, please see if any (and what) values are printed once
the mouse wheel stops working.
