I upgraded to a more recent version of 12.0-CURRENT last night, r303762,
and rebuilt the kmod, but the host still panics.

I also get a panic with a Ubuntu 12.  The panic happens very early
during the guest kernel boot when it prints a message about doing TSC
calibration.

A FreeBSD guest does not panic the host.

I did not have this problem with Virtualbox 4.x.
