This is a known problem shared with quite some other pieces of software. The kernel interface is not 64 bit clean. I'm running a similar setup albeit with sid instead of etch, but also with a 64bit kernel and 32bit userland. My workaround is to have a 64bit chroot available and run virtualbox inside the changeroot.
