Is this still an issue in wine 1.5.12 (or newer)?
There have been no patches/commits whatsoever to add support for joysticks via winmm for Mac OS X (nor have the Linux winmm/directinput joystick drivers been merged by making underlying changes to wine that enables it to share the joystick driver code for both programming models), so I can't imagine that it would suddenly automagically work.
I'm not the one with programs that use winmm for joystick support though, so I'll leave it up to others to test.
