I think this patch is broken.  I get :

/usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose/work/VirtualBox-4.1.16/src/VBox/Frontends/VBoxHeadless/FramebufferVNC.cpp:94:
   error: 'struct _rfbScreenInfo' has no member named 'ipv6port'
kmk: *** [/usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose/work/VirtualBox-4.1.16/out/freebsd.amd64/release/obj/VBoxHeadless/FramebufferVNC.o] 
Error 1
