Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: virtualbox-ose

The current order of Recommends starts with virtualbox-ose-
modules-2.6.24-12-386 and follows with virtualbox-ose-
modules-2.6.24-12-generic, which means installing VirtualBox will try to
install the -386 modules (which, in turn, pulls in the -386 kernel).

Reverting the order (i.e., placing the -generic modules before the -386
kernel) would at least default to installing the -generic modules, which
(I assume) is the most popular kernel.

This bug is similar to #188579, but not a duplicate; that one is about
apt knowing which one to install, this is about choosing the saner
default until that one is possible to be fixed.
