You might think that, but I believe that it is a coincidence.

Yes I am. The patched driver fixes an issue with a change made by Apple in physical SMC devices. The un-patched driver should work just fine with the virtual SMC device exposed by Fusion.
I'll try that config (Mac OS guest in ESXi in Fusion) myself when I have some time, just to be sure.
