I still have no idea what could cause this (besides the unhelpful approach of downloading both tarballs and doing a diff) - and you didn't provide the bare minimum information to look into an issue, especially as this is a 3rd party build. The basic bug reporting hints are on https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/User_FAQ In this case it's plain impossible say anything without VBox.log, and it's not there in the bug tracking system. We saw such errors when one used an unsupported/broken gcc version, but that's purely guesswork. https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Mac%20OS%20X%20build%20instructions says which Xcode versions are usable. VirtualBox needs a proper gcc, LLVM won't work.
