How to prevent mouse buttons 8/9 from affecting Firefox?

Whenever I push mouse button 8, which I use for PTT, and Firefox is active, it acts as Back. On Windows, I can use X-Mouse Button Control to prevent certain keystrokes or button presses from reaching Firefox. On Linux, is there a relatively easy way of doing that? Firefox has no option to disable extra mouse buttons, and I still want to use these buttons outside of Firefox - particularly for games and push-to-talk.
