It's completely unsupported.
How could anyone be running it?
The only way it could possibly be run is on Apple hardware, under a supported OS.

Windows on Apple is just fine - it's an expensive way to run windows though. But you can even run it natively on the hardware, in a dualboot config.
The statement of support for products under VMWare has been "it's supported up to the point where it's clearly an issue with VMWare".
So this should work - but I wouldn't do it for anything other than local development.

Yes, I've seen a few dual-boot machines and, as you stated, they were strictly for ease of development. I'm just more production oriented these days and I couldn't see any logic in using such a setup for any production environment.
