Built the 6.1.33-150501 testbuild packages for virtualbox and the
extenstions-oracle.

Installed on Archlinux host and guest. Host modules build fine and the guest
runs, but the guest addition modules on the guest WILL NOT BUILD. They don't
build or fail, there is nothing. There is a new /var/log/vboxadd-install.log,
but the vboxadd-setup.log is still from March 30 attempted build of the 6.1.32
guest additions on Linux 5.17.

Here is the ls -al of the vboxadd logs after attempting the 6.1.33 guest
addition install:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root    73 Nov 10  2017 /var/log/vboxadd-install-x11.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   488 Apr  3 00:27 /var/log/vboxadd-install.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root    30 Mar 30 21:42 /var/log/vboxadd-setup.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root    30 Mar 30 21:18 /var/log/vboxadd-setup.log.1
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10700 Mar 30 01:28 /var/log/vboxadd-setup.log.2
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   156 Mar 14 04:24 /var/log/vboxadd-setup.log.3
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   156 Mar 11 19:24 /var/log/vboxadd-setup.log.4
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root     1 Apr  3 00:27 /var/log/vboxadd-uninstall.log

The lsmod | grep vbox running modules are:

vboxsf                 94208  3
vboxguest             385024  6 vboxsf
vboxvideo              36864  1
drm_vram_helper        24576  1 vboxvideo
drm_ttm_helper         16384  2 drm_vram_helper,vboxvideo
total 1456

But checking /usr/lib/modules/5.17/misc, the modules are still from the 6.1.32
guest addition initial install -- before the modules quit building with the
"Cannot unmount vboxsf folders" in the two March 30 vboxadd-setup.log(.1)
shown above. The ls of the 5.17/misc kernel modules are:

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root   4096 Mar 30 01:28 .
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root   4096 Apr  3 00:22 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 890365 Mar 30 01:28 vboxguest.ko.zst
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 586638 Mar 30 01:28 vboxsf.ko.zst

I'm not sure what the problem is, but something has gone awry with guest
addition install on the 5.17 guest. It just doesn't do anything now...

What to check what to try?
