pxe boot over subnet fails — at Initial Version

Description

We used VirtualBox 4.0.4 (without extpack) without problems to boot with pxe (pcnet devices) over subnet boundaries.

After upgrading 4.0.10 and installation of the extension pack (because usb2 support), pxe boot over subnet fails for all devices (intel and pcnet!). The pxe client in virtualbox uses the IP of the dhcp relay agent by mistake instead of the IP of the gateway/router, so a "PXE-E32 open timeout" occurs (look at attached screenshot).

The "dhcp offer" (wireshark snippet, attached) seems to be correct for me. Also attached the mandatory vbox.log

Regards Thomas
