Chad-
The Nunchuk piece of the driver was written without access to a MotionPlus
and the Wiimote/MotionPlus part was written without a nunchuk. You might be
the first to actually assemble all of the pieces.

I'll try to see if I can find a MotionPlus to debug, but in the meantime,
I'll give the lame answer and say feel free to submit a patch :)
