I've got my single card/dual head setup working by duplicating the
'Device' section of XF86Config-4 , with some minor changes:

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "ATI Radeon 9200SE Port 0"
        Screen          0
        Driver          "ati"
        BusID           "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "ATI Radeon 9200SE Port 1"
        Screen          1
        Driver          "ati"
        BusID           "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection

Which allowed me to set up two 'Screen' sections. Everything seems to
work OK here.
