I had actually hoped for a different answer, but oh well. I have been
putting off modularizing the builds but I guess this will give me
something else to do. As for the chroot, I do them already so I
understand the process. It's Just the (SVN) OSE build will need some
serious script edits to pull off seamlessly. Oh well if it were that
easy anyone could do it, right :)

I was able to work around this by building GAs on a Debian SID guest.

Currently using a host with a newer GLIBC and building the GAs will not
work on guests that use an older version.
That means your build env is incorrect - using newer glibc than what is
available on the target systems will cause breakage.
We avoid such issues by building our guest additions binaries on a VERY
old linux distro.
On Debian it's relatively straightforward to set up "vanilla" distros in
chroot environments, and use the dchroot utility.

Unable to get (SVN) GuestAdditions to work in Debian Wheezy or SID.
since the last few updates
Contents of VBoxGuestAdditions.log
Starting VirtualBox Guest Additions Service /usr/sbin/VBoxService:

...done.
Checking and Debian wheezy SID does not use this version of GLIBC. the
newest I have available in wheezy& SID is 2.13 and the
/lib/x85_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 is a ln to libc-2.13.so
VirtualBox GAs 4.1.14 install properly so is there a change I can make
to allow the service to use 2.13?
