So let's make it two open questions:

i)   Running openMosix under VMware (Player or Workstation), possibly sharing
     with openMosix instances 'outside' the virtualization. Possible or not?

ii)  Running VWware instances under openMosix. Possible or not?

Pointers, stories, ... on success or failure with either i) or ii) welcome.

Substitution of bochs or qemu for vmware possible too, though maybe not
practical. Xen is not an exact alternative, hence out of scope (though also
interesting in its own right ...)
