No VirtualBox cannot be compiled with CLANG because it doesn't support
global register variables. So you get:

src/recompiler/target-i386/exec.h:41:30: error: global register 
variables are not supported
register struct CPUX86State *env asm(AREG0);


The patches were made by sobomax to fix that problem on RELENG_9:

kBuild: Installing 
/usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose-kmod/work/VirtualBox-4.1.12/out/freebsd.amd64/release/bin/src/vboxnetflt/Makefile
cd 
/usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose-kmod/work/VirtualBox-4.1.12/out/freebsd.amd64/release/bin/src 
&& make SYSDIR=/usr/src/sys
*** Building 'vboxdrv' module ***

As it seems those patches cause more problems than they solve so I'm 
going to remove them.
