Actually, EIGRP is a hybrid protocol which means it is distance vector and
link-state. Split horizon kills routing loops which can occur in either of
the 2 so it is indeed available in OSPF. I know this for a fact because there
is a command to disable it in OSPF: no split-horizon ospf, or something like
that...
