I'm not an expert, but it looks like you have identifier monitor1 and 
identifier monitor1 in the xorg.conf in comment #1 of the bz.  I think 
they should be different.  In both xcorg.confs try making the screen 
number in the ati driver screen 0 and adjust the server layout 
appropriately.  I noticed that s-c-d assigned 1 to the first port of my 
second physical radeon card on my rawhide system.  After changing it to 
screen 0, dual head worked.  I have two cards with monitors attached to 
screen 0 on each.
