(I'd rather not add code to the app to account for my toy monitor.)

I realize this counts as adding code, but it seems to me that the best solution would be to allow the user to choose which screen to show the OpenGL stuff on. This will not only fix your problem but give more choice to other users as well.

And you should present to the user, only the screens that support your required OpenGL Capabilities.



There is some tips about capability detection in the OpenGL programming guide


http://developer.apple.com/documentation/graphicsimaging/Conceptual/OpenGL-MacProgGuide/opengl_general/chapter_6_section_2.html

The sample use CGMainDisplayID, but you can also retreive the CGDirectDisplayID of each NSScreen from the NSScreen deviceDescription dictionary (this is the @"NSScreenNumber" key).
