I'm a little confused by this entry, but prepared to do some legwork on it. I
think primarily I'm concerned about IL-2 Sturmovik being the example app of
(USB) joystick input not working in OSX -- I will recheck, but afaik this app
doesn't see USB joysticks in linux wine either -- it *does* however see a
dsub-15 gameport connected joystick, and works reliably with it.

Could someone please mention another app, (*not* one of the IL-2 titles), which
isn't seeing USB joystick input in OSX? I have a Saitek ST90 to test against
but no idea which apps people are 'whining' about (grand play on words that :)

The *reason* I ask for a target app here, is that I've had varying results in
OSX and wine with other apps using a Xbox 360 controller and the
'360Controller' driver..ie; take 10 driving sim games I have - in linux with
the xpad.ko kernel driver, all 10 will see the controller and work fine -- in
OSX, the turn out is 4 will work with the xpad, and the other 6 don't see it at
all. That makes me think something is a tad awry -anyhow-, and to compound
things here, the 'XHD' Xbox 360 controller driver (from sourceforge) isn't seen
by wine at all (but OSX *does* recognize and work with the XHD driver). 

However, it's not a good test case -- the USB HID isn't using the system native
OSX driver, which is what I believe we should be looking at for the case of a
simple joystick HID, correct? So...feed me something to test...

@doh123 - you must have a small list of apps so affected? (8

@David - I'm not a wine_dev but you deserve kudos for the well worded appeal B)
