As far as I know, mouse movement by Emacs has never worked in OS X.

The following change to frame_set_mouse_pixel_position allows you to move the mouse from Lisp:

diff --git a/src/nsterm.m b/src/nsterm.m

   [FRAME_NS_VIEW (f) lockFocus];
-  PSsetmouse ((float)pix_x, (float)pix_y);
+  CGPoint mouse_pos = CGPointMake(f->left_pos + pix_x,
+                                  f->top_pos + pix_y);
+  CGWarpMouseCursorPosition (mouse_pos);
   [FRAME_NS_VIEW (f) unlockFocus];
 #endif
-#endif
 }

 static int

(test with (set-mouse-position (selected-frame) 0 0))

Still some things to fix:

With a portrait monitor to the left of the main monitor (the left monitor being in the negative x-coord. space), running the above test code on a single frame inside the left monitor leaves the mouse pointer about half a frame further down than the bottom-left corner of the frame. The pointer should end up in the top-left corner.

Also, tested only in 10.6, but it should work in later versions.
