VirtualBox crashes when using kexec in a VM with more than 1 core

Description
Running VB 4.2.6 Host OS: OS X 10.8.2 on an i7-3615QM Guest OS: Linux 2.6.38 (Fedora 14, 64 bit) Guest additions v4.2.6 installed
I have a slightly unconventional setup in which I first boot on a .iso that contains a boot loader that then kexec's into the real kernel stored on the virtual disk. This works fine, except if I give the VM more than 1 core (e.g. if I give it 2 cores or 4 cores), in which case the VM crashes. I'm not 100% sure yet, but it appears to be right at the time where I kexec the new kernel that the crash occurs.
