VirtualBox mangles memory

Just a quick reminder that, if you ever build a kernel, you probably want
to list all ports which generate kernel modules in a PORTS_MODULES line in
/etc/src.conf. E.g. "PORTS_MODULES=emulators/virtualbox-ose-kmod
multimedia/cuse4bsd-kmod". This will automatically rebuild these ports when
the kernel is rebuilt. You won't forget.

Caveat: This will fail for "make reinstallkernel" as the ports Mk files
lack a reinstall target, but it seems that relatively few people are aware
that this target even exists, even though it can be very useful.
