I don't understand most people's hard-on for the problem of evil. If I were a Theist it would be easy "God isn't omnibenevolent' Done. It doesn't really do anything at all against Theism in general.
Then why include it at all? Your list should be 3 good arguments and one that sucks. I really think the best is number 2. Why in the world would God be hidden. I've yet to hear an explanation that even close to satisfies myself for an answer to that.

God's doing the best he can with what limited power he has based upon incomplete information - and even the best of his intentions don't always go according to plan. Doesn;t work for the Judeo-Christian god, sure...but that's just one god of a vast hall of divinity.
Note that I put it third on the list and even offered possible evasions, though I don't see the other arguments as being quite as easily dismissed.
