Thanks Mick, I actually did follow those instructions before I posted. The vital step I omitted was to turn off the machine(s) in disgust and go to bed. Today when I booted the gentoo guest the vboxvideo module was loaded automagically, just the way it should be. There truly are computer gremlins who get bored with one machine and migrate overnight to plague other machines. Dale knows I'm right...
