Yes, I think the upstream bug report addresses my issue.
When Windows XP shows the login screen on both displays it uses (the smaller) notebook resolution. This resolution is also shown on the external display, but not stretched (like ubuntu does it) but centered.

The best solution would be if I could switch between the displays (and
perhaps mirror mode) with Fn+F8 (or whatever it is on other notebooks)
when GDM is displayed. Just the way it is when logged in. When GDM is
mirrored on both displays it should use the Windows approach (centering
instead of stretching).
