OK, I had to hand patch due to the existance of a "xineramascreen"
patch that was in there before but now that I have done so, it all
works.  I can use "-vo xmga -xineramascreen 1" to display on my 2nd
Xinerama screen and move the window and the overlay moves too.
Excellent!

Indeed.  I wonder about the 0-based numbering scheme though.  Is the
average Joe going to know that screen 0 is the first screen rather
than it being screen 1?
