Can you try:

a) booting with kernel parameter 'nodmraid'

That works.  Both disks appear in the disk configuration section of
anaconda.

In that case, the behavior is intentional. See
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=499733 . Your disk was
previously part of a BIOS RAID set, and you never removed the metadata.
anaconda ignoring such drives is not a bug -
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=499733#c22 . booting
'nodmraid' is a workaround, using 'dmraid -x' to remove the metadata

Well, OK, but the drive was bought new and installed in the machine and
was never touched by Linux until I used Fedora 10 to set up a couple of
partitions.

When I did dmraid -x it said
ERROR: ddf1: wrong # of devices in RAID set "ddf1_...." [1/2] on /dev/sdb
About to delete RAID set ddf1_...
WARNING: The metadata stored on the raidset(s) will not be
accessible after deletion
Do you want to continue? [y/n] : y
ERROR: Raid set deletion is not supported in "ddf1" format
