patch

We are seeing some crashes of gnome-settings-daemon, where 'exotic' X servers (like freenx) are used, where GetScreenResources requests are answered with a BadRequest error. 

See e.g. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=551780

Looking at the randr spec, GetScreenResources is a 1.2 addition. The docs for gnome_rr_screen_new state that it returns NULL if the extension is missing or < 1.2. But looking at the code, the version check is missing.
