Bug 208893: [PATCH] emulators/virtualbox-ose: make NATNetwork functionality
work
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=208893



--- Description ---
Hi,

I wanted to use the NATNetwork functionality introduced in Virtualbox 4.3, but
was unable to make it work.

After investigation it turns out it requires an helper program it expects to
find in PREFIX/lib/virtualbox/VBoxNetNAT which is built but not installed by
the port.

I made a simple patch fixing this issue.

Also the virtualbox 5 port I found at [1] needs the same fix.
