Good that you have found the correct mailinglist. FreeBSD related vbox
problems are best discussed on freebsd-emulation@ and if we need help from
upstream we contact vbox-dev@ or a few people on the virtualbox side in
private to not annoy them with common or FreeBSD specific problems.

The current svn version is very experimental as they have recently changed
a lot of build and kernel module related things so i am not very surprised
that this code doesn't work at the moment. I have an FreeBSD 8.0-RC1/amd64
box standing around so i will test it myself and see what we get.
