I doubt it. If MS says you can't use their OS virtualized, that's what they say--and they're perfectly within their rights. Same deal with Apple.
I personally think Apple is being foolish, but I understand why they're doing it.
Their main business on the Mac side is hardware; the OS is just gravy (which is why it costs $40 now--that's the upgrade price, there is no full version SKU.)
And you can virtualize MacOS, it's just that you have to virtualize it on Apple hardware, which I guarantee pretty much no one is going to do, at least in a server environment. You can even run ESXi on an Xserve--it's cleared by both companies. Unfortunately, they don't make those any more.
Hell, for that matter, if Microsoft said you had to pay more for a version of Windows that you would run virtualized, they're perfectly within their rights to do that.
