This is illegal, it generally doesn't work well on native machines, let 
alone under commercial virtualization.  It will not work except as hvm 
if it works at all, but the chipsets which are emulated would all have 
to be Intel, this is not the case.  There's no finding support in this 
matter everyone will tell you the same, we cannot test such things, if 
you do it we will not go down with you.  Again, nothing personal, but 
there's many Sun engineers on this list, and for professional reasons 
it's better for Apple and Sun to have lukewarm correspondence than to 
fight... it'd be nice if Apple just bought out Sun to be honest.

For your sake don't bring it up, it will only bring pain.  PS: domU 
typically means running a pvm, aka modified guest, the XNU sources are 
there but there isn't even precursory support for hosting Xen, let alone 
allowing in-kernel virtualization.
