Can I legitimately / legally run OSX in a virtual machine?

What I've been able to find online suggests "no".

I write code. It's really useful to push the code to a build server which runs a series of tests on it. Buying a dozen servers is a bit extreme, so I tend to test on a number of virtual machines. Windows and various *nix derivatives.

I now have a shiny new macbook and am considering adding OSX to the supported environments. For that to be viable, I need an OSX build server - all it has to do is compile and run a load of C and Fortran periodically.

Buying a license is fine but doesn't seem to be sufficient to let me install OSX on non-Apple hardware. Buying a license and then installing a slightly shady hacked copy doesn't seem ideal. Am I missing something here?
