Nice! I got it to work (the rsync is a little flaky but that's another thread).
So if I understand this correctly, I can set up two config.provider.vm sections in my Vagrantfile, one for Virtualbox and one for AWS, and the appropriate one will be used depending on the --provider switch. As long as the underlying boxes are more or less the same, whatever I do should work on either one. Very nice. Thanks for the answer.
