Ive done a similar thing syncing a Cubase SX system on a PC with Reason on another PC.
Basically as you suggest hitch up a midi interface between the two, set one at the master of MMC and midi clock and away you go.
How well it works is going to be completely down to the applications you are using and how good your master sync source is. (Assuming you aint using unbeleivably bad midi interfaces).
Personally, I am rather going off using computers as master sync sources - TBH they seem to be crap even compared to cheapo hardware midi clock sources - quite jittery - you dont notice it when playing or listening, but you do notice it when slaving synths with clock syncd fx as the fx can sometimes squeak and jump a little while resyncing around midi clock jitters.
With my V-Synth I get odd squeaks sometimes and with my Virus TI it seems to correspond with stuck notes. All of that seems to go away when using a stable hardware based master clock source.
