Ok, a new patch is available here:
http://people.freebsd.org/~dumbbell/synaptics/psm-synaptics-virtualscrolling-b.patch

It fixes the problem you described and add support to change each area
size (top, right, bottom, left) individualy (the
hw.psm.synaptics.directional_scrolls isn't used anymore for this purpose
and is back to its former meaning). For now, the default value seems
good for the right area but isn't enough for the three others. Here they
are with their default value:
hw.psm.synaptics.scroll_margin_top: 800
hw.psm.synaptics.scroll_margin_right: 800
hw.psm.synaptics.scroll_margin_bottom: 800
hw.psm.synaptics.scroll_margin_left: 800
