PBIs for PC-BSD are currently worked on and will hopefully be available

Thanks a lot to Jesse Smith, Dru Lavigne and Ken Moore for the efforts
to provide the PBIs!

PC-BSD 8.x 32bit:
http://disasterarea.chruetertee.ch/virtualbox/4.0.6/virtualbox-4.0.6-i386.pbi
ftp://ftp.pcbsd.org/pub/pbioutgoing/i386/8/emulators/virtualbox-ose/virtualbox-4.0.6-i386.pbi

PC-BSD 8.x 64bit:
http://disasterarea.chruetertee.ch/virtualbox/4.0.6/virtualbox-4.0.6-amd64.pbi
ftp://ftp.pcbsd.org/pub/pbioutgoing/x64/8/emulators/virtualbox-ose/virtualbox-4.0.6-amd64.pbi


Feedback (positive and negative) from PC-BSD users is very welcome!

I installed the 64-bit PBI on my PC-BSD 8.2 machine, but I am unable
to start any virtual machines(both pre-existing VMs or a new VM that I
tried to create).  I get the following error dialog:

Failed to open a session for the virtual machine RELENG_8_amd64.

Failed to load VMMR0.r0
(VERR_SUPLIB_SYMLINKS_ARE_NOT_PERMITTED).

Unknown error creating VM
(VERR_SUPLIB_SYMLINKS_ARE_NOT_PERMITTED).

Yeah, thanks we already know. They added some strict hardening checks
in virtualbox 4.0 that fail on PC-BSD. Kris Moore is currently
rebuilding the PBIs with some modifications.

That's exactly why we have call for testers so find such weird problems
that nobody could think of.

This bug has been fixed now for the 8.x / amd64 version of VirtualBox
4.0.6 PBI:

ftp://ftp.pcbsd.org/pub/pbioutgoing/x64/8/emulators/virtualbox-ose/virtualbox-4.0.6-amd64.pbi

The 32bit version is still in the queue for rebuilding, but should be
done in the next 24 hours or so.
Thanks a lot! Have you made any changes that we can include in the vbox
port or just the pbi packaging?

No problem!

This particular bug was related to how we build our PBIs, using a LOCALBASE which was a sym-link to elsewhere. By switching LOCALBASE back to the full-directory path, it corrected the issue. I'm not sure if that's something you need to fix in the port, but it may be good to note for anybody else using a non-standard LOCALBASE.
