Is OpenGL Acceleration based on the host's OpenGL capability available in KVM?
Thanks.

No.
The Virtualbox code for that is open though (uses chromium like VMGL) in case you 'd like to port it to qemu/kvm :)
There's a patch for qemu:
http://qemu-forum.ipi.fi/viewtopic.php?t=2984
and there's also this:
http://sysweb.cs.toronto.edu/projects/7
I think this is used by vbox.

Interesting, and along the lines of exactly what I was after (including the opengl32.dll win32 library). But that thread is from 2+ years ago, and no mention of whether the project is maintained. Does it work with the KVM virtualization back end for QEMU?

No, vbox seems to use something very similar to the approach in the first link you posted.
