[vbox-dev] build from SVN

This has been happening for a while but I can't put my finger on the 
issue.  Each release from SVN I compile, pack, & install seems to remove 
the host-only settings and of course I forget it has and try to start a 
guest ( you know what happens next ).  It fails and I open preference 
and add it back in and all is good to go. So my question is why?

The really weird part is the ~/.config/VirtualBox.xml still has the 
following, even though the GUI shows it is missing, & it does not work.

<ExtraDataItem name="HostOnly/vboxnet0/IPAddress" value="192.168.56.1"/>
       <ExtraDataItem name="HostOnly/vboxnet0/IPNetMask" 
value="255.255.255.0"/>
       <ExtraDataItem name="HostOnly/vboxnet0/IPV6NetMask" value="64"/>

<DHCPServers>
         <DHCPServer networkName="HostInterfaceNetworking-vboxnet0" 
IPAddress="192.168.56.100" networkMask="255.255.255.0" 
lowerIP="192.168.56.101" upperIP="192.168.56.200" enabled="1"/>
