I suspect that if you checked the .config file, on both these last two you would have found that it contained CONFIG_XEN_XENBUS_FRONTEND=m, which is what I found when I tried it just now, which means that something is resetting the value.

And to answer my own implied question, XEN_XENBUS_FRONTEND is set automatically to whatever the larger of XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND (in drivers/block/Kconfig) or NETXEN_NIC (in drivers/net/Kconfig) is via the select command. Comparing this with the code and Makefiles, this is correct for XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND, but NETXEN_NIC has no direct requirement for XEN_XENBUS_FRONTEND (though it should require XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND). Also XEN_KBDDEV_FRONTEND (in drivers/input/Kconfig), XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND (in drivers/net/Kconfig) and CONFIG_XEN_FBDEV_FRONTEND (in drivers/video/Kconfig) should all select XEN_XENBUS_FRONTEND to set the value of this field correctly.
