Hello,

There are following lines in emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions/Makefile.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
.if ${ARCH} == "amd64"
.if !exists(/usr/lib32/libc.so)
pre-everything::
        @${ECHO} 'Requires 32-bit libraries installed under /usr/lib32.'
        @${ECHO} 'Do: cd /usr/src; make build32 install32; service ldconfig restart'
        @${FALSE}
.endif
.endif
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I removed these lines and tried 'make install' with all options
enabled on 11.2-RELEASE amd64 without lib32. Then installation
completed without any errors. And as long as I used it for several
hours there seems to be no problem.

Is lib32 really necessary for this port to install and use on amd64?

Regards.
