More on my tests:

After permorming a number of tests I found out that this strange bug was
fixed somehow during the last days. I have checked until
2010.02.07.01.01.01 (7th of February 2010) and there was no panic.
I then checked latest CVSUP (14th February 2010) and the panic had
dissapeared. Thus, I can conclude that a fix was made to address this problem
and now I have:

virtualbox-ose-vnc   (3.1.2) execute succesfully on my 8.0-STABLE (with
cvsup 14th February 2010). 

My tests were performed by compiling the kernel and virtualbox kernel module. 

Because, all is normal now I will not continue the task to locate exactly what
went wrong during that period.

Thanks for the help,


BB
