The hidden items seem to show up in the general forums section from the student view, neither dimmed nor hidden. At the same time the instructor view shows them in their original locations (in my case by week) , dimmed.
You can see this if you login as guest to https://secure2.cpcc.edu/moodle/course/view.php?id=7
Notice that on the main page the xxx- test forum to see access bug (and several others) are not visible, but when you go to the forums list they are right there.
Open to any and all ideas!

I count 25 forums that are viewable from course homepage and see 32 listed under Forums Activities link, including the xxx-test forum that should be hidden. Looks like you got a problem. You can spot these things by going to "Participants" and logging in as any student, while you are logged in as the admin. This will show you exactly what they see. Might want to check the bug report and see if this is already listed. I am running 1.3 dev and the problem does not occur, so that may mean it has already been fixed.
If you would just have consulted that elderly gentleman who is the course facilitator, he probably could have given you the answer. You better watch it kid, you're gonna look like that in a few years. Take my word for it.

Seriously, it seems to be Bug 1209 and it was fixed and closed 5 days ago.

But other than trying random searches, how does one effectively see if an issue has already been addressed? Read all the bug reports regularly?

Just reading every post in every discussion in every forum?
No, both discussions were created at the same time and I simply remember the other... Anyway, trying some searches is a good approach.
