[vbox-dev] USB in SVN not working

[Perry Halbert]

This started happening sometime after ExtPack VNC was enabled in the 
build but not right away.  It worked as it should for a while with VNC 
and with USB.  See pipermail link below.  Could this be a reason for the 
issue now?

It should be noted that there are no build errors as such except the 
normal errors about hard links.
