IIRC, yes, no, and no.

It should be easy to have tools/kvm drive lguest - they're both virtio 
based.  All you need to do is provide yet another ops structure to drive 
the two ABIs.

I guess lguest.c has to remain, as point of lguest was a simple teaching 
aid for virtualization (which doesn't work very well, as the techniques 
it uses are obsolete).
