 virtualbox 4.1.6 and 4.1.8 do not build for me on Snow Leopard with Xcode
 3.2.6. The log is filled with:

 {{{
 gcc-apple-4.0: not found
 g++-apple-4.0: not found
 }}}

 Indeed, no such programs exist on Snow Leopard. The default system
 compilers for Xcode 3.2 are gcc-4.2 and g++-4.2. gcc-4.0 and g++-4.0 are
 also available but you probably don't need them.

 If I "`sudo port configure virtualbox`", then edit
 work/virtualbox*/Config.kmk and change "`VBOX_MACOSX_GCC_INFIX ?=
 -apple-4.0`" to "`VBOX_MACOSX_GCC_INFIX ?= -4.2`", it builds fine.

 Why doesn't the virtualbox build process make use of the CC and CXX
 environment variables, or the --with-gcc or --with-g++ configure
 arguments, both of which are being supplied? The Portfile goes to some
 effort to set `configure.compiler` correctly, but then the virtualbox
 build system never makes use of the variables that sets.
