No, this kind of issue exists because there is some kind of include list
for functions used by the kernel modules. The list is per OS and updated
manually and vbox developers tend to miss entries for FreeBSD. Adding the
filename to the list is simple and we usually create a simple patch for it
which we sure did in the following cft and it might still be in the
virtualbox-ose port if it wasn't yet included upstream.

After all this is wasting your time and now even mine so please try to use
packages or a newer portstree. This is a dead end.
