I'm experiencing the segfaults

fish: Job 1, “VirtualBox ” terminated by signal SIGSEGV (Address
boundary error)

(pid 77705 (VirtualBox), uid 1001: exited on signal 11 in dmesg) with
virtualbox-ose-4.36 on my PC-BSD-10.0 release.

Let me say that it was working after fresh install, but latest update
did break it. :-(

Bernhard told me on #freebsd-vbox about possibility to use jkim's ports,
bit I'm reluctant to do it considering that PC-BSD is shipping
VirtualBox with the base OS which is another questionable decision,
imho.

Please advise what to do?

Until my bank switches to new Java-based software, I've to use vbox with
Win XP guest to use it and, fortunately, I did not dismantle my old
Debian setup on the 2nd HD which is otherwise supposed to be in raid1,
but it's cumbersome to dual-boot PC-BSD in order to use Win XP under
vbox under Linux. :-(


Sincerely,
Gour

p.s. I have the same issue on my netbook, so it's not some memory issue.
