If you are using the Alky libraries (which are essentially a bunch of proxies sitting between the game and DirectX, translating and forwarding API calls), you are not running DX 10 *natively* so there is a degradation in performance.
If performance is your aim, then I'd consider that a problem.
Certainly DX10 (native) on Vista will run games faster than DX10 (with Alky) on XP. Brian Thompson (the developer) hoped to address this problem, but Alky was discontinued in January so it remains.
