 > I just uninstalled ld64, llvm, cctools and all of my macports gcc
 compilers and reinstalled virtualbox. It still doesn't work, but one
 relevant fact I noticed is that when I ran "sudo port install
 name:virtualbox" macports didn't reinstall ld64 or any build tools.

 My output is:
 {{{
 me at biboop ~> port deps virtualbox
 Full Name: virtualbox @4.2.6_1+vde2+vnc
 Build Dependencies:   pkgconfig, apple-gcc42
 Library Dependencies: qt4-mac, curl, libidl, libxml2, libxslt, openssl,
 libsdl, vde2, LibVNCServer
 me at biboop ~>
 }}}

 Your output means you actually have an executable file at
 ''/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/gcc-4.2'',
 [https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/emulators/virtualbox/Portfile#L66
 see the Portfile].
 Maybe it's legacy, I'm not sure why you have that file. If you have still
 the Xcode image (i.e. the dmg not from App Store) and you want to get rid
 of it you wipe off Xcode.app and reinstall Xcode + CLI tools.
