Thank you Andy MacLean.
Patched versions of libpciaccess and xserver-xorg-video-mga are now available in my PPA. And yes - after installing them xserver starts up fine with the old-style xinerama based xorg.conf. I could not see any disadvangates during a couple minutes of testing.

I recognize everybody planning to install patched versions has noticed Andy's comment that patches are quick hacks, not perfect. While using Hardy's xorg might be much a better option I'd like to offer these packages as a quick and easy workaround.
