I only have this in /usr/local/bin:

lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel         33 30 Jan 20:45 VBoxBFE@ -> 
/usr/local/lib/virtualbox/VBoxBFE
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel         38 30 Jan 20:45 VBoxHeadless@ -> 
/usr/local/lib/virtualbox/VBoxHeadless
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel         36 30 Jan 20:45 VBoxManage@ ->

lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel         33 30 Jan 20:45 VBoxSDL@ -> 
/usr/local/lib/virtualbox/VBoxSDL

/usr/local/lib/virtualbox/VBoxSVC
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel         37 30 Jan 20:45 VBoxTestOGL@ -> 
/usr/local/lib/virtualbox/VBoxTestOGL
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel         39 30 Jan 20:45 VBoxXPCOMIPCD@ -> 
/usr/local/lib/virtualbox/VBoxXPCOMIPCD

May it be something is interfering with the problem I am discussing in 
the other thread "Problems with 'make clean'"?

Greetings Frank
