Hi,
today Oracle released VirtualBox 5.1.24, a maintenance release of
VirtualBox 5.1 which improves stability and fixes regressions.
See the Changelog at

For gcc7 builds for i586, I find the source needs an additional
patch:

Without this patch gcc7 errors with a "non-void function returns a
random
value". Obviously, the compiler does not know how to process that
rmlongjmp()
call; however, adding that extra line has little effect on the object
code.

I also got issues with latest gcc , glibc etc .

Any feedback is welcome
I have not seen that problem. Obviously your build system differs.
You might try the statement "#undef greg_t" just before the typedef for greg_t
in src/VBox/ExtPacks/VBoxDTrace/include/VBoxDTraceTypes.h.
Interesting that the file contains the statement
"# include <sys/ucontext.h> /* avoid greg_t trouble */". It seems that it is
not working.
