David, yes there is definitively something wrong with the current 5.2.X

Thank you Frank!

Your search foo is better than mine. At least I know where to look and that I wasn't going crazy :)

I did further testing with the latest testbuild package for 5.2.33 and still
on the 5.3 kernel there is no vboxsf module for Linux guests. The modules
available in the Linux guests are:

$ lsmod | grep vbox
vboxvideo              40960  1
drm_vram_helper        20480  1 vboxvideo
drm_kms_helper        212992  1 vboxvideo
drm 516096 5 drm_kms_helper,drm_vram_helper,vboxvideo,ttm
vboxguest              45056  0

  The testbuild build packages used were:

https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/VirtualBox-5.2.33-133577-Linux_amd64.run
https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/VirtualBoxSDK-5.2.33-133577.zip
https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/VBoxGuestAdditions_5.2.33-133577.iso

The PKGBUILD (Arch build script) used is attached. Is there any other patch floating around that I can add to have the vboxsf module generated under the 5.3 kernel?

Sorry, see my latest update, I cannot confirm these problems exist.

do you have the corresponding extension pack installed on the host?

https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-5.2.33-133571.vbox-extpack

other then that, what are the detailed errors in your guest when installing
and building the guest additions?
