The fix for 151311 is to add quirks to xorg-server for each of the
problematic monitors.  These quirks are very hardware-specific by design
(they apply to a particular vendor and product ID).  This information is
reported in the Xorg.0.log file.  Quirks for several monitors were added
in the fix for 151311, but it's likely this misses monitors from a lot
of other people.  In particular, this does not cover:

Matt:

(II) fglrx(0): Manufacturer: DMI  Model: 0  Serial#: 66
(II) fglrx(0): Max H-Image Size [cm]: horiz.: 4  vert.: 3
(II) fglrx(0): clock: 108.0 MHz   Image Size:  4 x 3 mm

4, 3 sounds like aspect ratio data.

Etienne:

(II) RADEON(0): Manufacturer: TRL  Model: 610  Serial#: 5989
(II) RADEON(0): Max H-Image Size [cm]: horiz.: 32  vert.: 24
(II) RADEON(0): clock: 107.0 MHz   Image Size:  4 x 3 mm
(II) RADEON(0): clock: 25.3 MHz   Image Size:  4 x 3 mm

I don't know that we have a quirk available for these two cases, though.
Maybe these should be forwarded upstream.
