I tried with todays server ISO image (2010-03-10). The good thing is, that the installer contains both, the VMXNET3 and the PVSCSI driver and detects the virtual hardware flawlessly. Unfortunately the system doesn't boot afterwards when installed in "minimal virtual machine" mode (using the -virtual linux kernel). The system then lacks the PVSCSI driver and drops to a BusyBox shell because no disk could be found.
When installing the system in standard mode, I can start the system when using the recovery mode (from the GRUB menu). Standard boot doesn't work (blank screen) - but this seems to be a graphic issue.

Shouldn't the VMXNET3 and PVSCSI driver be included in the -virtual linux image?
