Thanks for the info, Henri! By saying it's an "OS X" bug I'm assuming you mean it's a bug in OS X itself (as a opposed to, say, XQuartz).
Mostly just "not Wine", but it's likely to be in the OS or graphics drivers, since the bug depends on the version of OS X, and not so much on the version of XQuartz. (And also happens with the X server in CrossOver.)
Apple hasn't always been responsive about fixing these kinds of bugs. and indeed, this one has been spooking around since Lion was released. Since Apple doesn't seem the least inclined to fix it at all... now what?
I'm not trying to be confrontational, but I wonder, should OS X users just forget about being able to do fullscreen on some games because it's "not Wine's problem?"
There are some workarounds like e.g. virtual desktop and the one mentioned in my previous comment, but essentially yes, unless you can convince Apple to fix it. I'm afraid that's just one of the disadvantages of using a proprietary OS.
