So far I've only seen guest kernel panics when booting the kernel on an
E8400 i386 FreeBSD host.

I was using VB in a set-up like that up until a few weeks ago.

It works here now, too. Apparently there's a difference between creating a 64-bit guest from the start, and creating a 32-bit guest and changing it to 64-bit afterwards. Creating one that's 64-bit from the start works.
