t-p-u is not the best alternative IMHO, we're not talking about some package (linux-modules-*2.6) we can easily take out of the release if it breaks without harming lots of users... Either we remove virtualbox-ose from the release or we accept the version in unstable AFAICS, though as I asked before, please let the maintainers comment...
