The usual procedure when hunting such compilation errors in the
VBox source tree is the following:
1. Do 'kmk -j1' and wait until it aborts at the file in question.
2. Touch the file in question (in your case pam_vbox.c)
3. Do 'kmk -j1 KBUILD_VERBOSE=2'
4. Copy'n'paste the command line to compile this file and replace
'-c' by '-E -dD' and the extension of the file name after '-o'
by '.i'.
5. Look at the resulting .i file, perhaps send it to me via
private E-mail, don't forget to compress it!
Kind regards,
