The call for testing went out on 11th june
(http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2009-June/008061.html)  
I can only assume it was considered tested and working as the port was
committed on 15th june
(http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/emulators/virtualbox/Makefile?rev=1.1;content-type=text%2Fplain)

Since then there have been 4 updates to the port. The last of which
updated it to 3.0.51r22226 on august 14th.

I would say the call for testing is no longer valid, please use the
version in ports.
