I am nor sure if you still have issues with VirtualBox, but mix of 
openssl libraries from base and port was the cause for me. This mix was 
introduced by latest curl update.
To fix this run (cd /usr/ports/ftp/curl && make config) and select 
GSSAPI to be *not* from base. I chose 'heimdal' option. Then force 
rebuild/upgrade of curl, and VirtualBox will likely work.
