            Bug ID: 263772
           Summary: emulators/virtualbox: VirtualBoxVM needs elfctl -e
                    +wxneeded for bridged network
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)

VM's in virtualbox do not start when using bridged adapter. They do when NAT is
selected. This is because the system is running whith sysctl
kern.elf64.allow_wx=0. So either kern.elf64.allow_wx needs to be set at 1, or
the feature of the problematic executable
/usr/local/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBoxVM should be set with elfctl -e +wxneeded.
Is it possible to add an option in the port for this?
