This has been discussed many times here on xen-devel and on xen-users..

with xen-unstable (upcoming Xen 4.0) take a look at 
/etc/xen/xend-config.sxp:

        (pci-passthrough-strict-check yes)

set that to no, restart xend, and it'll work.

With Xen 3.3, or 3.4, you can apply a "disable FLR" patch, which also makes it 
work:

See this thread:
http://xen.markmail.org/search/?q=disable+flr#query:disableflr+page:1+mid:7dbm675e4x4dawec+state:results

Hopefully that helps.
