I've now deleted everything in /usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose-kmod and downloaded a fresh copy of the
port (4.1.10) from the FreeBSD website but still get the same problem when compiling.
/data1/tmp/usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose-kmod/work/VirtualBox-4.1.10/out/freebsd.x86/
release/bin/src/vboxdrv/r0drv/freebsd/memobj-r0drv-freebsd.c:405: error: invalid type argument of '->'
*** Error code 1
I've also updated the source files for the base system and built a new kernel in case it's a header problem
since I noticed that /usr/src/include/unistd.h and /usr/src/lib/libc/include/libc_private.h were both updated
in security advisory SA-11:07 (for which I only did a binary update at the time) but this didn't cure the
problem.
I've had no problem building earlier versions but it went pear shaped with 4.1.8_2
As an experiment I've used portdowngrade to try compiling a few older versions

2 2012/03/09 21:46:18 VirtualBox-${DISTVERSION}_2 - Reenabled fixed memobj r0 patch
3 2012/02/22 22:09:41 VirtualBox-${DISTVERSION}_1 - Revert memobj r0 patch until the problems on i386
are solved
4 2012/02/21 14:31:54 VirtualBox-${DISTVERSION} - Update to 4.1.8
Of these, the only one to compile OK was 4.1.8_1 so it looks like the fixed memobj r0 patch still has problems
on my system.
