I'm at a loss as well - I've been using this crude hack:

mv /usr/bin/Xorg /usr/bin/Xorg.bin
cat > /usr/bin/Xorg <<EOF
#!/bin/sh
newargs="`echo "$@" | sed 's/-nolisten tcp//'`"
exec /usr/bin/Xorg.bin -ignoreABI $newargs
EOF
chmod 4755 /usr/bin/Xorg

Basically a short shell-script to whack the command line as passed to Xorg.
I also needed the -ignoreABI for the proprietary nvidia 173.08 driver.
nv and nouveau don't seem to handle non-Xinerama dual-head.
