Depends on what you mean by "proven". We here at AMD run daily tests
with various combinations of Linux and Windows guests - and it works
(for most of the time, sometimes we break our own code, and sometimes
it's broken elsewhere in the development tree, that's what you get from
running "unstable"). 

But I didn't reply to your initial question because:
1. It's not clear what you mean by "proven". 
2. I think I'd be considered "biased"... ;-)
