You just need a bit of magic in the config file:

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Radeon Primary"
        Driver          "ati"
        Screen          0
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Radeon Secondary"
        Driver          "ati"
        Screen          1
EndSection

The magic 'screen 0' and 'screen 1' options provide two "devices" on the 
same card.  Declare two monitors:


Section "Monitor"
        Identifier      "Primary Monitor"
        HorizSync       30-150
        VertRefresh     50-60
        Option          "DPMS"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier      "Secondary Monitor"
        HorizSync       30-150
        VertRefresh     50-60
        Option          "DPMS"
EndSection

Now declare your screens to reference the two devices:

Section "Screen"
        Identifier      "Primary Screen"
        Device          "Radeon Primary"
        Monitor         "Primary Monitor"
        ...
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        Identifier      "Secondary Screen"
        Device          "Radeon Secondary"
        Monitor         "Secondary Monitor"
        ...
EndSection

The ServerLayout section glues these together:

Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier      "Default Layout"
        Screen          1 "Secondary Screen" RightOf "Primary Screen"
        InputDevice     "Generic Keyboard"
        InputDevice     "Generic Mouse"
EndSection
