That's so embarassing. While profiling qtcreator with sysinternals process
explorer I saw, that qtcreator tried to invoke VBoxManage instead of
VBoxManage.exe and failed to create a proper process. For some reason I must
have created an empty file VBoxManage in the VirtualBox folder by accident.
After removing that file, everything works fine now.
