Problem with loading VirtualBox kernel module

I have a problem loading the VirtualBox kernel module. From a fresh
port build, it loads fine, and the VM is stable. I've tried that three
or four times. Subsequent loading of the kernel module locks the
system, giving a page fault error (trap 12). Only one time was I able
to load it; about a dozen times it froze. It does not matter if I have
X11 loaded or not, or if ACPI is running (there are some quirks with the
BIOS).
The computer is a very old 32-bit dual CPU Athlon (so no VTx
extensions); this has happened for both the original virtualbox port and
for take2. FreeBSD 7-STABLE, VBox and the kernel source were synced on
May 15.
Please let me know what additional information would be useful.
