IBM has a hypervisor for power and x86 called rHype 
(http://www.research.ibm.com/hypervisor) that is Open Source.  There is 
also a closely related research project at IBM called sHype to design a 
secure hypervisor architecture (that was initially based on rHype).  
Think SELinux for hypervisors.
There is also an effort to develop a Xen port for the power architecture 
(http://xeno-ppc.bkbits.net).
There is another effort to build a secure hypervisor architecture for 
Xen called XenSE.  Even though this seems like a lot of different 
projects (and a heck of a lot to keep straight) they are all very 
closely related and there's a lot of collaboration.
