+As of version 4.0 we also no longer require third-party builds of VirtualBox to be distributed under the name of VirtualBox OSE.  However we do still kindly request that they be clearly marked as third-party builds in some way, and that the version string (the "VBOX_VERSION_STRING" build variable), which appears at the top of the log file, be changed to reflect this.  One way of doing this is by setting VBOX_VERSION_STRING on the build command line, which might look as follows:
+{{{
+$ kmk VBOX_VERSION_STRING='$(VBOX_VERSION_MAJOR).$(VBOX_VERSION_MINOR).$(VBOX_VERSION_BUILD)'_my_distribution_name
+}}}
