I'm going to try some of the suggestions from the forums.
Vanilla myHack would not boot, and I could not get Clover UEFI to install correctly on the USB stick. But there is more to try.
I will attempt:

I. Update binaries
1) download FakeSMCr615
2) download NullCPUPowerManagement (I found two that are different)
3) Build Clover 1979
4) Update internal HD ESP with Clover 1979
5) From Virtual Mac, copy FakeSMC.kext to install partition's S/L/E
6) From Virtual Mac, copy NullCPUPowerManagement.kext to install partition's S/L/E
*) Boot from Clover on HD ESP

II. Install myHack on USB stick
1) From Virtual Mac, copy FakeSMC.kext to myHack's S/L/E
2) From Virtual Mac, copy NullCPUPowerManagement.kext to myHack's S/L/E
*)Boot from myHack on USB, and:
3) Put FakeSMC.kext in Install partition's S/L/E
4) Put *NullCPU* .kext in Install partition's S/L/E

III. Remove AICPM.kext
1)remove AICPM.kext from install partition's S/L/E (if there)
2)remove AICPM.kext from myHack's S/L/E (if there)
*) Try booting from either



IV. Install Clover over myHack USB

Asked for help on Hackintosh forums.

Hurray for helpful folks! Got some good advice. Some of it is contradictory, but I will sort through it.

I'm stuck at the kernel panic:
“Unsupported CPU: family =06 model=0x2d”
“Kernel Extensions in Backtrace:
com.apple.driver.AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement(196,0)”

I’ve tried with and without a DSDT from rampagedev. I’ve tried the cpus=1 boot option, and the KernelLapics option. I'll try the KernelCPU option, but I think that is for very old systems, not new ones.

I suspect that I have the wrong kexts or I am missing kexts in either
Clover: EFI\CLOVER\OEM\X79-UD7\UEFI\KEXTS
or
OSX Install System/Library/Extensions

In the Extensions dir, I have tried it empty, with only FakeSMC, with only NullCPUPowerManagement, and I have tried it with all 220 10.8 kexts that are part of a 10.8 distro.

So far I always get the Unsupported CPU kernel panic. Or it hangs at the using xxx buffers after the MAC framework is initialized.

In a nutshell:
Hardware:
CPU: Intel Core i7 3960X @3.3GHz
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-x79-UD7 (UEFI 10)
Boot Medium: Seagate 1Tb fixed drive. SATA dev 1, GPT partition 0
RAM: R-Skillz RIPJAWS 16GB DDR3 1600Mhz
Video:NVIDIA 680 GTX
Audio: Creative SB X-Fi

Software:
Bootloader Clover 1943
OSX 1.8 Mountain Lion
DSDT: Gigabyte GA-X79-UD7 Ver. 1.1 (Dec 2012) for BIOS F10
Some kexts: AppleIntelE1000e.kext fakesmc2.5 MarvelL88se9172AHCIPortInjector.kext NullCPUPowerManagement.kext

Config:

Am I making progress? It is hard to tell.
I am trying to boot my installer partition. I have progressed from kernel panics to hanging.
First thing was disabling options from the DSDT mask. I started with 0xE033, but that gave a KP of "Unable to find driver for this platform".
I disabled options one at a time down to 0xE013, and the KPs changed to "Unsupported CPU Family". Somehow my boot args had been cleared, so I rebuilt the config file to keep

boot args "-v npci=0x2000 slide=0 WithKexts NoCache"

My System now hangs at "MAC Framework Successfully initialized using 16384 buffer headers and 10204 cluster IO buffer headers"

Lots more to try!

Let me be be someone's hero.
Get yourself an XML checker-validator or better yet a nice xml editor with checking built in. Even if you only edit the config.plist files by hand, a checker can save you hours that you will waste because of a missing dash or an extra slash.
Trust the science folks, humans are terrible at detecting the tiny errors that break an xml file.

Now, the slow slog of errors. I may give up at any point and try iATKOS or something, but I will make a try at vanilla 10.8 and manually fixing stuff.
My first error is AppleACPIPPlatformExpert:: Start Failed.

The install procedure says to restore InstallESD.dmg to a partition. This turned out to be tricky. Restore from the dmg fails, due to "invalid parameters" .  Mounting the dmg, and restoring with the mounted version works. But then the partition and filesystem verification can fail, which prevent installation. So some tips:

• Create a separate Install Partition
• Ensure that there are no more than 4 total partitions on the drive
• Install Partition should be at least 8gb
• Ensure that the install partition is the second partition
• Ensure the success of  "verify disk" on the whole disk, and "verify disk" for each partition/volume.

OSX did not like the HFS+ partitions that I created with gparted. diskpart complained that there was not enough "loader space" no matter what I did. So within OSX, (on the virtual Mac) I erased all but the invisible ESP partition, and created an install and an OSX partition on the Mac drive. I restored InstallESD to the install partition, and re-installed Clover 1946 to the OS partition. All tests show good. I expect I must reinstall Clover yet again on the OS partition, go get the correct kexts and DSDT.aml.

Now to try booting again.

MILESTONE!
Clover now starts every time.
Something, somehow, had smashed the top-level config.plist into binary garbage. I replaced it with a valid file. I also created a valid config.plist under:
EFI/CLOVER/OEM/X79-UD7/UEFI

And THAT config file, at long last, is read correctly. One way I know is because I set the theme to be different for all of the config plists.
So the ESP partition now has 7 config files that are almost exactly the same:

./CLOVER/OEM/SystemProductName/UEFI/config.plist
./CLOVER/OEM/SystemProductName/config.plist
./CLOVER/OEM/VirtualBox/UEFI/config.plist
./CLOVER/OEM/VirtualBox/config.plist
*./CLOVER/OEM/X79-UD7/UEFI/config.plist
./CLOVER/OEM/X79-UD7/config.plist
./CLOVER/config.plist

I am pretty sure that at least the top config file EFI/CLOVER/config.plist must be valid, or else none of the other configs are read. Again, for the GA-x79-UD7, the file "./CLOVER/OEM/X79-UD7/UEFI/config.plist" is the only one that is finally used. And Hurray, now that everything works, I have a debug file! :/

./CLOVER/misc/debug.log

I duplicated the DSDT.aml and 10.8 kext files under the  CLOVER/OEM/X79-UD7/UEFI directory too.

Time to install, boot, and run the OSX 10.8 installer!

Plugging in the USB drive did something to the UD7's nvram, now I can see Clover every boot, evrn with no USB present. However, Clover is not reading the config files. I guess it may be the X79-UD7 config dir I created. my blind trial and error. I am annoyed that I compiled a debug-by-default version of Clover, but still no log files. I have NEVER seen a Clover log file.
On the plus side, I seem to be able to boot Windows from Clover.

I hate computers.
At LEAST three full workdays of effort attempting to get Clover to start on the UD7, with no results. Almost by accident, I started the UD7 with an iATKOS ML3 bootable USB drive. That drive has Clover 1850. Sure enough, Clover starts fine from the USB. but Its what happend next that is so odd.
I unplug the USB, reboot, and go to the kitchen to get a drink. I come back, and there it is. Clover has finally booted from the Mac drive. And unlike on the the VM, Clover  is correctly reading the confing.plist.
I had to hard reset to boot windows again, becuse the Clover option to boot windows did not work. Still good news, at least I know it is possible to get clover to run on the UD7. Now I need to discover  WHY it needs the USB drive to boot from the SATA Mac drive.

CRAZY!
