Transgaming has fixed the problem.  I ran WineX with DGA and all and the 
keyboard and mouse worked fine.  Unfortunately, that still doesn't help 
me, because I have other problems with WineX that prevent me from 
switching over to it.

I also ran the above cmdline with --debugmsg +all, and I got a bunch of 
the following error messages:
0806d860:trace:keyboard:KEYBOARD_MapDeadKeysym no character for dead 
keysym 0x0000ff1b

I had a total of 70 different keysyms it couldn't find a character for 
(see attached).

It did, however, manage to properly detect my keyboard (I surmise):
0806d860:trace:keyboard:X11DRV_KEYBOARD_DetectLayout detected layout is 
"United States keyboard layout"

This is all the keyboard & mouse stuff I could fish out of the 82MBs 
worth of debug info:

0806d860:trace:keyboard:X11DRV_InitKeyboard OEM specific virtual key DF
