A non-programmatic way is to look at the SDL banner window (assuming you
are using SDL and not VNC or gfx disabled).  When you are using KVM it
will say "QEMU/KVM".

(WARNING: hack alert) A programmatic way would be to check the /proc
filesystem for the pid of the QEMU process for open references
to /dev/kvm.

There may be other ways, but that is all I could think of off the top of
my head.
