Unfortunately tv-out load detection is sometimes unreliable and there are only two display controllers. You should be able to work around it with something like: video=SVIDEO-1:d on the kernel command line. Look in look in /sys/class/drm to verify the connector name.
Thanks for the workaround, but this worked fine prior to kernel 2.6.33.3-72.fc13.

Is this still an issue with a newer driver/kernel?

load detection is not always reliable. You'll have to boot with video=SVIDEO-1:d on the kernel command line in grub or disable s-video once you're in X. Most desktop environments should remember your settings and disable s-video in future sessions.
