not modules, but guest-utils.
I know about this issue and i'll provide a package soon.

Thanks :)
I'm not able to get it to compile (Java trips up); I'll wait for the repo update. Also, the compiled package on FR site is 32-bit, I use 64-bit.

I couldn't compile either. Tried `makepkg -sr` and got:

That's the entire log, the important stuff is in the last 70ish lines.

Well I know that I should not send this so quickly... The problem is not produced by my patch, the original package failed to compile too... I don't know how the original package are compiled... So I was thinking it was a problem in my setup, and I workaround the problem: disabled the web service.

@egates Yes, I forgot to fix this one (kmk_builtin_mv -f...) in my patch... Anyway I failed to compile SOAP (I had another error during linking, missing a library), to fix it I just disabled the web service included into the virtualbox package. I think it shouldn't impact the virtualbox-guest-utils package (We only need to recompile this package...). And by disabling the web service the build is much faster.

The PKGBUILD used to build the binary provided inside the FR forum is http://benjarobin.free.fr/ArchLinux/virtualbox-4.2.10.nowebservice.PKGBUILD
