--- Comment #30 from Frank Reisert <bugs@rufus.in-berlin.de> ---
VirtualBox 7.0.22 build on 14.1-RELEASE-p6 with llvm18-18.1.8_2

I opted for 7.0.22 for it seems to be "RELEASE" while 7.1.4 is "CURRENT" in my
understanding.

My plan is to get to a working port in 3 steps:
-step 1: compile and stage (accomplished),
-step 2: identify and incorporate necessary/useful patches from 6.1.50,
-step 3: create a port.

While I deem step 1 being accomplished (source compiled and staged) I have not
tried to run the binary yet.  All I have done so far is to fix compile-time and
linker errors using a minimal set of patches from 6.1.50 and my brains+fingers
so my simulated ports environment got it compiled and installed into stage. 
I'm happy with that for today.

During the next free hours I'll try to install and run the thing.

Following that: step 2.  Here I'd like to ask if there is anybody with enough
insight into FreeBSD who would like to help me identify patches from 6.1.50
which should be incorporated into 7.0.22.

regards
Frank
