My fault not examining xev more carefully.
When I press the thumb button, the ButtonPress event is issued, and
while still holding it, if I move the mouse, it give an MotionNotify
immediatelly followed by a ButtonRelease!

So, Fluxbox is not to blame.  But who is?
The mouse hardware (Logitech LX700)?
The X mouse driver (x.org 7.2)?
Other?
