I forgot to add one more thing: this all applies to the latest, Beta1 SDK. 
Previous versions worked out of the box. With the workaround, on Debian stable 
works fine. In other distro with a newer VirtualBox I didn't get the error, 
and worked fine as well.

Are the sources for the installer online? I couldn't find them in 
github/sailfish-sdk. It would be a trivial patch, and a pull request would be 
harder to get lost.
