The OSE Additions packages are maintained entirely by the distributions
which supply them - we only provide our generic Additions package for
all Linux systems - but since our Additions code for Linux guests is
entirely open source they should fit in fine with non-OSE versions of
VirtualBox.  With the limitation (which actually applies to almost
anything in a Linux distribution) that the distributions will probably
not provide the latest version, so they may be lacking a few features,
or contain the odd bug which has been fixed upstream.

Regards,

Michael
