>Description:
If you enable Remote Display after a VM starts and connect via VNC to host:port (default port 5900) the running VM will crash.
>How-To-Repeat:
1) Install www/virtualbox-ose with VNC support.
2) Create a new VM with out Remote Display enabled 
3) Make sure Remote Dispaly is disabled 
(within the VM settings: Display, Remote Display tab, uncheck Enable Server)
3) Start the VM without Remote Display enabled 
4) Turn on Remote Display (see above - check Enable Server)
5) Connect to the VirtualBox host via the port VNC is running on
