FreeBSD head r295983 introduced a problem, later solved in r296075,
which caused building kernel modules from ports to fail. This has also
been reported in bugzilla. [1]

Unluckily the machines building ports for head have been updated to a
revision affected by that problem, so the build for the port has failed.
The package will be available again once the cluster machines are
updated to a newer snapshot unaffected by this bug (I don't know how
often those are updated).

So it's definitely a short term problem, actually already solved in the
repositories, which isn't virtualbox or ports fault either.
