The X server should provide a workaround. For XFree86, this is
controlled by the Emulate3Buttons option in the XF86Config file; this
option allows a middle button click to be emulated by pressing the
left and right buttons simultaneously. Quite a few X programs assume
three buttons, so enabling emulation is fairly important if you don't
have a three-button mouse.

BTW, the Windows driver (in the wingrass_generic package) translates
Shift + left button click to a middle button click.
