I found one BIOS entry, "Virtualization technology"; it was initially disabled, but I enabled it before I installed CENTOS, and verified that it was still enabled later (I reported enabling it in my original message).

That's the entry. But reports are some systems need to be fully powered off for the entry to be effectively changed - some BIOSes evidently are flakey about it.
That didn't work either.
And then, elsewhere in this thread, Paul Heinlein pointed out that doing the test for vmx *from within dom0* wasn't valid. Checking the xm dmesg output, I find "VMX enabled". (I can't tell if that's been there all along, or not, at this point.)
So, Win!
Thanks to you and all the others who made suggestions.
