you do this from virt-manager so you can track the graphical outputs more fully, since serial console tends to be pretty limited?
Ah, that helped! I used a graphics console and now it reports a useful error; my kickstart file for RH5 had mistakenly coded "5.8" into the paths, rather than using the symlink I maintain. This didn't show in the text installer, but did when I used the graphics console.
So it wasn't the KVM at all, just the kickstart file and a lack of error messages from anaconda.
