Looks pretty good from my understanding, but I'd like to polish it a bit more
before applying it. I'm gonna do the review here since I'm not that familiar
with that part of the code.
The first thing is that it would be great if this was a git formatted patch
with a commit message. But if it's easier to keep it as a separate patch, can
you add some information to the patch header? It would also be great if there
could be some comments in the code. It looks like multiple Screen sections are
being handled, but not really.
Now to the patch.

Coding style issues for here and the rest of the patch.

It seems were making the decision here that if you had one Screen section,
you'll want more of them. Otherwise, we're just allocating another GDevPtr and
doing nothing with it. Probably the right thing to do is generate Screen
sections anyway, but that might be a more involved change. Here we should
probably return the first autoconfigured device (ptr) if there are no screen
sections and skip this whole loop.

+ cptr->identifier = xnfcalloc(1,strlen("Autoconfigured Video
Device ")+strlen(matches[i])+1);
+ sprintf(cptr->identifier, "Autoconfigured Video Device %s",
matches[i]);
Seems you could use xnfalloc since you immediately memcpy/sprintf over the
allocations anyway.
+ cptr->driver = matches[i];

Oh, I see. You're putting the rest of the existing Screen sections at the end
of the array. That's nice.

This TODO comment should be moved up above that last loop where you're just
shifting the rest of the screens to the end of the array.
