Sure, sorry for the long response, vacation and other things have delayed

I take it back, it looks as if my kernel has been compiling with that
option.

What do you mean by hidden? Are you thinking that by doing 'lspci' you wouldn't
see them? They will be visible in your dom0. It is just that the driver
(radeon) won't bind to them. You will see something like this (look for
pciback):

X failing to start? What card at that point are you using? Is the radeon
or another? How does it fail? If you boot with 'drm.debug=255 debug
loglevel=8' on your
command line what does dmesg (or /var/log/messages) show? Can you attach that
please.
Perhaps you can also attach the lspci so I can get an idea of what
is what in your box.

cat /proc/cmdline and 'xl info' would help.
