Maybe it doesn't count as input method support, but I've recently switched to the Japanese localization of OS X with the Koeteri system and when I do not explicitly choose the Latin input method nothing appears in DrRacket when I type. (For example, normally (basically all other OS X apps) in hiragana mode when I type "ichi" it appears as "いち" for a moment, but when I press down I can change it to "一". But in DrRacket, nothing appears at all the whole time.)
