I have an updated fc6 (2.6.18-1.2869.fc6) and I installed the
kvm-9-1.i386.rpm package found under extras-development.
But this gives me only the user space modified version of qemu
(qemu-kvm is the only file included).

It's intentionally in the devel tree only as that's the only place where
the kernel has the support.  When the FC6 kernel goes to 2.6.20 (which
it eventually will), then adding the package for FE6 will make sense.

It's fairly trivial to backport kvm (it runs as a module on kernels as old as 2.6.16) if it is desired to give FC6 users a technology preview.

It would certainly help kvm by expanding the userbase.

Do not meddle in the internals of kernels, for they are subtle and quick to panic.
