Component:  ports            |    Version:  2.1.3

-----------------------------+--------------------------
 Please refer to upstream tickets linked in
 [https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/11490].[[br]]
 In that and other upstream tickets users recommended using VirtualBox 4.1
 for OS X VMs on OS X hosts.[[br]]
 I would propose creating a virtualbox41 port but do not understand the
 various patches in the current virtualbox port well enough to modify them
 to suit VirtualBox 4.1.[[br]]
 This port may conflict with the virtualbox port since both require kernel
 modules.[[br]]
 The current 4.1 series release of VirtualBox is 4.1.26.
