Akin to Win32s for Windows 3.x, people have gotten DirectX 10 going on XP, supposedly 11 as well, but still trying to track that down.

Haven't I seen a closed thread about this topic?

I guess the main difference is that Win32s is an official add-on by Microsoft, while DX10 for XP is a hacked thing.

I don't know where is placed KernelEx (another hack? I'm sure that it is not official), but the moderators chose to close that older XP + DX10 thread.

KernelEx is more like homebrew I think, the last release does the modifications in RAM (no alteration of system files).
According to the wiki, it's an OpenSource project. http://kernelex.sourceforge.net/wiki/
