Matrox driver does not set correct refresh rates for second monitor after reboot.

Description
When I reboot my system the second monitor does not have the correct refresh rates. The monitor says refresh rates out of range and says the current setting is 102KHz and 81Hz. I need 94KHz and 75Hz for this to work correctly. Both of my monitors are identical and are setup the same in xorg.conf. If I restart X then the second monitor is OK. It does this from both a cold boot and a warm boot.
Actual Results:
When X starts the second monitor reports that the refresh rates are out of range
with the values 102KHz and 81Hz. The correct refresh rates are 94KHz and 75Hz.
Expected Results:
Both monitors should have the correct refresh rates set and I should be able to
use the second display after a boot or reboot without having to restart X.
I have a Matrox G450 video card. I am running xorg 6.8.0-r4. I also tried xorg 6.8.2 but it had the same problem. I am running Gentoo 2004.3 on an amd64 machine in 64 bit mode.
Since I have a work around I have set the severity to minor. I posted this in the Gentoo Bugzilla and they asked me to post it here.
