The problem is that pcscd on Mac OS X does not support the notion of a
class driver. If a USB device can be used by 2 different drivers then
pcscd select one at random.

I added a class mechanism in pcsc-lite (for Linux) in revision 4249 [1].

Another approach is to remove the support of the Reiner SCT reader
from the CCID driver. I did this in version 1.3.11 of the CCID driver.
So it should be no problem to that my CCID driver 1.3.11 and Reiner
SCT driver at the same time.
The CCID driver on Mac OS X should be upgrade from 1.3.8 to 1.3.11 (or
later) at some point in the future.

Bye
