I think I'm missing something here. I fail to understand how KVM-based image is linked to libvirt.pm/KVM.pm modules in this case (and if it should). Once I set image.osid to 36, (36 is os.id for vmwarelinux, module 5 - VCL::Module::OS::Linux), vcld is trying to load KVM-based image to a computer with Provisioning Engine set to VMware and using a VMware host. It fails.
In this case (image.OSid = 36) there is no link between KVM image and libvirt computers/KVM hosts.
