Ok, I haven't had a chance to write up exactly what I needed to copy, nor have I yet tested the result, but I have apparently managed to build VirtualBox to completion on OSX 10.9 using the new --with-xcode-dir option pointing to a partial copy of Xcode 4.1 extracted from the Xcode 4.1 package I downloaded from apple.
Some notes. - I used xcode 4.1, with one exception - I couldn't find ./Library/Xcode/PrivatePlugIns/Xcode3Core.ideplugin in the 4.1 xcode package, so I used the version from xcode 5.1 since I had that handy - I used the Qt dependencies that had been ( I think ) installed by homebrew jon.
