[haiku-development] Save a KDL Crash Dump to Text File from VirtualBox?

Last night I got a kernel panic when I tried to do a full build of
Haiku's SVN on a nightly build. I filed it in Trac, Ticket #7998.
I had to make a screenshot of the crash dump though. This means that
the dump isn't searchable with grep, or conveniently openable in a
programmer's text editor, viewed in Terminal with less and so on.
Is there a way to save Kernel Debugging Land's crash dumps in a text
file from VirtualBox?
While VirtualBox does have Clipboard integration, that won't work when
in the debugger. It's not safe to write a file to a filesystem
mounted within Haiku.
Two alternatives would be to send it over the network or to spit it
out the emulated VirtualBox serial port, which is then saved into a
text file. If either of these would work, could someone tell me how
to do it?
Thanks!
