Update: I tried to do some debugging by attaching gdb to the
/usr/bin/Xorg but I didn't get anything useful with the backtrace. Since
X doesn't actually crash, I would need to find a reasonable breakpoint,
but I was unable to do so. Does anyone have any ideas?

More interestingly, I can enable the external monitor using the command:
xrandr --output VGA --auto --right-of LVDS
with no problems. This suggests the bug occurs because of the difference in the 
way xrandr is called from the command line and how it is called in 
gnome-display-properties. Any ideas?
