 The build process changes the permissions of /Applications or
 /Users/username if they've been made o+w for some reason?  What MacPorts
 installs into its directories is correct, but it has no control over what
 is before it in the hierarchy and VirtualBox cares about that.  Don't
 count on users always knowing what they're doing, e.g.
 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/663089/unable-to-make-applications-
 folder-writeable-in-mac (from personal experience, OS 9 transplants used
 to love doing this to make it more familiar; they'd throw the -R flag in
 too for good measure.  Plenty of bad advice on how to "fix" things exists
 in Google still)
