The guest additions are built as part as the normal build for the host 
platform (i.e. VBOX_WITH_ADDITIONS=1 being defined by default, see 
Config.kmk).

If you're building on a Linux host, then doing a full VirtualBox build 
should also build the corresponding Linux guest additions and place the 
resultant binaries in "out/linux.<isa>/[debug|release]/bin/additions/"

If you want to disable building of additions you can do so by specifying 
"VBOX_WITHOUT_ADDITIONS=1" or "VBOX_WITH_ADDITIONS=" in a 
LocalConfig.kmk or provide it as part of the kmk command.

Since additions are enabled by default there is no need to explicitly 
document additions building.
