VirtualBox 5.0.26 and higher will not start on Ubuntu

Description

Problem is documented here https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=79040 VirtualBox fails to start up. 5.0.24 works fine but any version later than that will not start - Failed to create the VirtualBoxClient COM object. The VBoxSVC process seg faults and I have a core file, 23M, just need to know how to get it to someone. Problem occurs on Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04. I've tried 5.0.26, 5.1.2, 5.1.4 and they all behave the same way.

DKMS built the modules fine, it's the app that won't load.
