I have older Xserve hardware that is 64 bit but the bios is 32 bit. Fusion
runs mavericks with no problem. The vm runs in 64 bit mode.
I'd like to run mavericks as vm under ovirt on this hardware.
Google searches I've done keep pointing to vmware.
Any pointers?

From a license perspective you can only run OSX on apple hardware.
So for example you can run VMware Fusion, VirtualBox, Parallels, etc on MacOSX.
VMware does have experimental support for installing ESX on Apple hardware.
This hasn't (formally) been done for KVM.
There were some patches flying around a few years ago that tweaked the emulation to expose
some Mac friendly devices including the systems management chip but these didn't go
into mainline.
In theory it could be done - even on non-Apple hardware (license issues aside) especially
with the newer device emulation (q35) that we have in modern qemu
I found this http://www.linux-kvm.org/wiki/images/2/2b/KvmForum2008$kdf2008_8.pdf there
are probably newer versions out there, likely from Alexander.
