VBoxClient --clipboard seems to be broken with a recent update
You can start it without error but it just goes away. The last thing in
the strace is a clone.
Anybody else seen this problem or know of a fix?
VBoxClient has behaved like this before, if memory serves. Either I've

I updated this system by binary update, and I guess the default is
|--include-config.|
