I think it should be fine on one screen only (modulo AIGLX maybe see bug 9339).
The problem is that like most drivers, radeon currently enables the DRI when the
"dri" X server module is loaded, there's no direct way to enable it on one
screen but disable it on the other. I've been meaning to introduce Option "DRI"
for this but kept being preempted by more important stuff.

As a workaround, you could try causing the DRI to get disabled on one screen via
options that can't be satisfied, e.g. Option "GARTSize" with very large or small
values.
