Ok, so i386-elf-gcc is installed. It sounds to me like you may need to tell the virtualbox configure script where i386-elf-gcc is located, but their instructions don't say that. You may need to contact the author of those instructions for clarification. I'm installing i386-elf-gcc myself now to see where it puts its files, but you can see this too using "port contents i386-elf-gcc". Maybe try finding out where the i386-elf-gcc program itself is located, and add that path to your PATH variable, or look at virtualbox's "./ configure --help" to see if there is a way to tell it where i386- elf-gcc is. I am assuming it is not located in /opt/local/bin; if it were, then your PATH should have allowed the virtualbox configure script to find it.

Once you figure out what is necessary to install virtualbox on Mac OS X, do let us know so that we can create a portfile for it, to make it easier for other Mac users to install it.

Finished installing i386-elf-gcc on my system. It looks like in installs the file /opt/local/bin/i386-elf-gcc-4.3.2. So you will need to somehow tell the virtualbox ./configure script to use that program.
