Description:
Running ArchLinux as a guest OS from inside a MacOS X running VirtualBox fails to load DRI, AIGLX and has no OpenGL acceleration. From the logs it seems that VirtualBox is not DRI2 capable, but I'm unsure if that's the case or if my system is not configured properly.

This is a problem with Virtual Box (either guest or host).
From the logs it seems the problem is with Xorg driver provided by guest-modules, seems Xorg wants DRI2 and driver just provides old api.
Could you check your GL works with the same versions (Xorg, VirtualBox, guest-modules)?
glxinfo indeed reports direct rendering is enabled, but even this software (enlightenment) reports:
OpenGL Warning: glFlushVertexArrayRangeNV not found in mesa table
OpenGL Warning: glVertexArrayRangeNV not found in mesa table

Some software will crash after no GL visuals can be found, prints:
OpenGL Warning: XGetVisualInfo returned 0 visuals for 0x891e788
OpenGL Warning: Retry with 0x8002 returned 0 visuals
OpenGL Warning: XGetVisualInfo returned 0 visuals for 0x891e938
OpenGL Warning: Retry with 0x8002 returned 0 visuals
OpenGL Warning: XGetVisualInfo returned 0 visuals for 0x8923378

OpenGL Warning: XGetVisualInfo returned 0 visuals for 0x8923528
OpenGL Warning: Retry with 0x8003 returned 0 visuals
OpenGL Warning: XGetVisualInfo returned 0 visuals for 0x891fbc8
But other software (glxgears and foobillard++) works.
I'll investigate more, but please reopen the bug so it will serve at least as a reference for people that have the same problem that although the error messages in the log and some applications that do not work, it should be working.
So there is 3D support for OpenGL 2.1 although all the weird Xorg.log messages and runtime warnings such as "OpenGL Warning: gl.. not found in mesa table", but it is too old :-(
