OK.

Can you also try

Sys.setenv(DISPLAY=":0.0")
schools.sim <- bugs (data=data,
                       inits=inits,
                       parameters.to.save=parameters,
                       model.file="schools.txt",
                        n.chains=3,
                        n.iter=1000,
    bugs.directory="/Applications/WinBUGS14",
    debug=FALSE)

i.e. without explicit setting WINE and WINEPATH? I would like to know if 
  search for wine and winepath binaries is successful on mac.

Is the /Applications/WinBUGS14 path on Mac as standard as C:\Program 
Files\WinBUGS14 on Windows? If yes, then we could use it as default on 
mac. On Linux/unix OS we assume that WinBUGS is installed (under wine) 
as in windows.
