The extension pack is needed in order to have USB 2.0, RDP and PXE boot support
and is _not_ part of the free version, so please read their conditions before
using it:
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/VirtualBox_PUEL
Further information and details about the extension pack is available here:
https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch01.html#intro-installing
I'm wimping out here and use requireFile to ask the user to fetch the extension
pack manually, simply because I'm not a lawyer. I've seen other distributions
that fetch the extension packs directly from upstream, but I'm not sure if that
is according to Oracle's PUEL.

This should fix a few issues with charon and VMs crashing starting at an amount
of at least 4 running VMs in parallel.

This time, we need to patch, because the upstream tarball got messed up
somehow[TM]. You can find some details about the issue here:
https://www.virtualbox.org/pipermail/vbox-dev/2012-October/005408.html
Our patch is removing the language file, as it seems that even in SVN trunk it
isn't available anymore. So, let's hope we can remove this patch in the next
upstream release.

Upstream changes are:
* VMM: fixed a potential host crash triggered by shutting down a VM when
another VM was running (only affected 32-bit hosts and 64-bit OS X
hosts, 4.1 regression)

with Windows 8 guests)
* VMM: respect RAM preallocation while restoring saved state.
* VMM: fixed handling of task gates if VT-x/AMD-V is disabled
* Storage: fixed audio CD passthrough for certain media players
* USB: don't crash if a USB device is plugged or unplugged when saving or
loading the VM state (SMP guests only)
* RTC: fixed a potential corruption of CMOS bank 1

First of all, modules won't install when there is no "make modules" prior to it,
so we're doing this now with a new function called forEachModule, so we can
avoid duplication as much as possible.
In addition this sets $sourcedir to the current directory of the configurePhase,
so we're able to find the source tree later on, after several chdir()s.
The scripts/depmod.sh checks whether the path in $DEPMOD is executable and only
executes it if that's the case. So, by setting DEPMOD to "/do_not_use_depmod"
the destination path doesn't exist _and_ thus isn't executable aswell.
The for loop didn't find $curdir, because it was set _after_ the directory has
been changed. The variable is now called $srcroot and is set before the
installPhase is changing directories.
Don't rely on VirtualBox's in-tree build scripts to set include paths correctly
and use the official way of the Linux kernel to build the modules. That way we
don't need to make ugly symlinks in the kernel tree or heavily patch VirtualBox.
longer seems needed. Optionally build the Python bindings. Disable
the Java bindings by default to prevent a gratuitous dependency on
the JDK.

because Qt 4.8 doesn't propagate dependencies such as "which" and
"pkgconfig". Thanks to Yury for pointing this out.
* Also updated VirtualBox to 4.1.8.

Instead, use the generic package override mechanism to use packages
from earlier bootstrap phases.
* Don't rely on the existence of attributes such as
`stdenv.coreutils'.

- Fixed location of the VirtualBox icon
- Removed qt3 as dependency of VirtualBox since it's obsolete since 3.0.x
