dfu-util on Mac OS X

[Dr. H. Nikolaus Schaller]

Now, after trying one -D command (which fails), --list shows this  
(looks pretty good!):

hns$ ./dfu-util -R -l

hns$

What I have seen is this error message on the first -D request

Device really in Runtime Mode, send DFU detach request...
Resetting USB...
error resetting after detach: usb_reset(ResetDevice): device not  
opened for exclusive access

This could indicate that some Apple USB device driver makes trouble...
