I do have a P5E-VM DO running with VT-d using BIOS 0702.
Good to know it breaks when upgrading, I was tempted to give it a try 
recently...
I do have error messages like this:
(XEN) [VT-D]iommu.c:722: iommu_page_fault: iommu->reg = ffff828bfff56000
(XEN) [VT-D]iommu.c:691: iommu_fault_status: Fault Overflow

(XEN)     l3_index = 10
(XEN)     l3[10] = 0
(XEN)     l3[10] not present


But VT-d gets enabled nevertheless and actual pass-through was also 
working the last time I tried...

Best regards,
