At this point, xterm-mouse-mode should work already (it's enabled globally).
Well, it is not :) (or at least does not work), likely already considered as suspended.

If you mean `M-x xterm-mouse-mode' this should be trying to *disable*
xterm-mouse-mode.
As the xterm-mouse-mode does not work, yes, I try `M-x xterm-mouse-mode',
but in does not *disable* (nor *enable*), it just say `Terminal is currently suspended'

Right, that's because it tries to disable it in all terminals. Indeed,
we have a problem here. The disabling (or enabling for that matter)
should not burp on suspended terminals.

Good point, we should make it work.

In the mean time, you can try
(add-hook 'after-make-frame-functions
(lambda (frame)
(unless (or window-system xterm-mouse-mode) (xterm-mouse-mode))))
Thanks!, works fine (I mean, doesn't crash emacs anymore, but still no mouse)
