Since Kermit is in the public domain, you should be able to find source code
somewhere.  Try changing a line or two, and then recompiling, if this is what
you end up doing.  You might also want to try to disassemble the mouse driver
code, and change an address or port in there, but don't tell anybody about
this.  Or, as a final option, you could write your own mouse driver.
