I looked into it.

I tend to believe that the VirtualBox patches for FreeBSD modifying
the Makefiles are the problem.

[root at DellT410two /usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose-kmod]# find .
-type f -exec fgrep -H MK_CLANG_IS_CC  {} \;
./files/patch-src_VBox_HostDrivers_VBoxNetAdp_freebsd_Makefile:+MK_CLANG_IS_CC
?= no
./files/patch-src_VBox_HostDrivers_Support_freebsd_Makefile:+MK_CLANG_IS_CC
?= no
./files/patch-src_VBox_HostDrivers_VBoxNetFlt_freebsd_Makefile:+MK_CLANG_IS_CC
?= no

According to http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/share/mk/bsd.own.mk,
Revision 1.107.2.5,

this parameter decides whether the CLANG compiler is installed as /usr/bin/cc.

VirtualBox does not install the cc (that's done by installworld of the
base system build) so to set the variable here does not make sense to
me.
