i686 & amd64 & 8.1-RELEASE & current all show the same symptoms

	
>Description:
	I was stuck by this bug till I posted & Bernhard F replied
	unsetenv DISPLAY, so this patch makes it easier for next
	person who gets stuck. It's not an ideal patch:
		- Its noisey,
		- one could add more ifdefs to avoid eg make fetch
		  also being marked as broken, & just leave make all broken.
	But it does the job until someone fixes virtualbox, when the
	patch can then be discarded.
	
>How-To-Repeat:
	setenv DISPLAY your.host.com:0
	cd /usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose ; make
>Fix:
	Patch appended, also copied in
