[Users] EL5 support for VirtIO SCSI?

I have just set up an Ovirt 3.3.0 install and have done a test install of Centos 6.4 in a VM.  The VM was configured with an IDE drive and a virtio-scsi drive.  The Centos 6.4 install sees both drives OK.
I'm wanting to do some testing on a product that is based on EL5, but I'm finding that it cannot see the virtio-scsi drive.  It does show up in the output of 'lspci', but I don't see a corresponding 'sd' device.

I've just tried installing Centos 5.10 and the support is not there.

Does anyone know of any tricks to allow EL5 to see the virtio-scsi device?
