Problem occurs in VirtualBox 3.1 with recent r35350 and older r34722.
Problem does not occur in VirtualBox 3.0 with r34722.
Symptoms: when running a configure script from a package, for example less
[http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/less/less-418.tar.gz], entries like this appear in
`config.log`:
{{{
configure:3681: checking for initscr in -lxcurses
configure:3716: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 conftest.c -lxcurses >&5
./configure: line 3717: 858 Segmentation violation $CC -o
conftest$ac_exeext $CFLAGS $CPPFLAGS $LDFLAGS conftest.$ac_ext $LIBS 1>&5
configure:3722: $? = 139
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h. */
| #define PACKAGE_NAME "less"
| #define PACKAGE_TARNAME "less"
| #define PACKAGE_VERSION "1"
| #define PACKAGE_STRING "less 1"
| #define PACKAGE_BUGREPORT ""
| /* end confdefs.h. */

| /* Override any GCC internal prototype to avoid an error.

| char initscr ();

| return initscr ();
| ;
| return 0;
| }
configure:3740: result: no
}}}
and

In the second example we see gcc operational (attempt to compile and bail
on linkage error) which means that the segv in the first example occurs in
gcc (when no linkage error interferes) and not in sh.
