Is there any way to make the xen kernel see more then

No it is an architectural limitation of Xen that 32-bit is limited to
a maximum of 16 GB, even with PAE.

Well, there is one from the dirty tricks department: Install 32bit fc7, pull 64bit xen kernel from the 64bit kernel-xen rpm, boot that with the 32bit linux kernel.

Mixing 32bit and 64bit guests isn't going to work for the time being (needs a kernel update). But with the 64bit hypervisor underneath the system should be able use all memory, even with 32bit guests only.
