[vbox-dev] Major problem with latest from SVN

[Frank Mehnert]

Perry,

thanks for the report and sorry for the delayed response. But it seems
that current HEAD has some more problems which we are investigating
(e.g. we see SEGFAULTs in certain circumstances).

But I've uploaded an extension pack which should work with current
HEAD to

  http://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-4.1.51-77491.vbox-extpack

Kind regards,

Frank
