Classic D-Pad Not Recognized

[meunierd]

So in various applications, I'm able to use buttons and the analog sticks EXCEPT for the d-pad on the classic controller whose input is never recognized so I can never map it in any of my applications. I haven't been able to find any documentation regarding this.

The DPAD keys (KEY_DPAD_LEFT/RIGHT/UP/DOWN) were introduced only recently. If the applications were written decently, a simple recompile should help. However, a short notice to the developers cannot hurt.
