4.0.14 and 4.1.4 is ready to be committed to the tree but this will 
happen after the FreeBSD 9.0 release. Main reason for that is that we 
need to synchronize this with the kBuild update so we need to throw out 
3.2.12 at the same time and also update 4.0.12 to 4.0.14 because 4.0.12 
requires the old kBuild that we currently have and 4.0.14 requires the 
new one. Timing on that is really bad because if we had 2-3 weeks more 
time I would do a cft and try to get it committed before 9.0 but we are 
already on RC1 and I don't want to push it in just to release with 
broken vbox packages.

Additionally I've put all my spare time in the last 2 months into 
redports.org to get it going so I did not have much time for virtualbox. 
I hope this will change once the first redports beta starts which is 
planned in about a month but we will see. So if anyone cares to help out 
on virtualbox this would be a good time now.
