The recent change of -funsigned-char causes additions of negative
numbers to become additions of large positive numbers, leading to wrong
calculations of mouse movement. Change these casts to be explictly
signed, to take into account negative offsets.

Wrote this patch from my phone, untested, so it would be nice if
somebody with hardware could confirm it works.
