First report:
$ uname -a
FreeBSD x300 8.1-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 8.1-PRERELEASE #0 r208609: Fri May

The port builds fine, all options enabled. However, on loading
kldload-ing vboxdrv.ko instantly panics the machine. I'm unable to
obtain a dump (double fault?), but I can run appropriate debugging
commands if someone would like to steer me around :)
Partially transcribed backtrace:

Thank you to everyone on the vbox@ team for the AWESOME effort put
into bringing another powerful virtualization option to FreeBSD.
