Xorg log using nouveau-0.0.16_pre20111109

After switching from the nVidia binary drivers to nouveau, I am unable to use
my dual head setup; the second monitor refuses to come out of standby.

xrandr -q reports that the monitors are recognized and correctly configured.  
In gnome-shell I can drag a window off of the working monitor, so it appears
that the desktop is configured as expected, just that the secondary monitor is
not receiving a signal.

It seems to work fine with no xorg.conf, and I tried various configurations for
about six hours with no success.  The only thing was that when I used the
RightOf/LeftOf options in the Monitors sections, gnome3 would come up in
fallback mode.

nVidia binary drivers 290.10 (and earlier) have worked fine.

 - XFX nVidia GeForce 9600GT (NV50/NV94) w/ dual DVI-I outputs
 - dual NEC 2560x1600 monitors
 - xorg-server 1.11.2
 - nouveau 0.0.16_pre20111109 (also tried _pre20110323)
 - Gentoo amd64 linux-3.1.0

I'll attach some basic logs; let me know if you need anything else.
