I don't know. I can only guess it is to reduce amount of system-dependent c=
ode.
Really, vbox kmod is very strange thing. After a few hours of digging I got=
 an
impression that it is not a kernel part of VBox but is a loader that loads =
into
kernel memory and initializes RING0 parts of emulator on each? VM start.
