Thanks for the heads-up but did you actually report that to our
bugzilla so we can include proper fixes in the external modules? did
you try to contact the authors of the virtualbox-modules package to
let them know as well? Reporting this problem in this mailing list has
little value as every user needs to hack the packages on his own to
make them work which is not an easy task for people who have not
fiddled with ebuilds before
