Ok, I built everything with Mike's build environment (after a bit of
updating URLs and such).  From within the build directory I can run
dinput_test.exe and I get output like this (moving the stick and
pushing some buttons):

However, I still don't get any axes detected in the IL2 demo.  During
launch it produces this output:

DirectX Joystick NOT created: DirectX joystick driver: device not attached

(Yes, the joystick is attached when I launch it.)

I also don't get any joysticks listed in the Descent Freespace demo's setup app.

Is there some other demo you can recommend that works for you?

Thanks,
