I found this: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2007-02/msg00510.html

-> thus there must be some inline-assembler statements which get not translated right for 64bit, as there is no info passed to m-a that he should do it for 64bit?

I compared the m-a log to the build log for the 2.6.24-18 virtualbox-ose-module. here the information, that the build is for 64bit seems to be passed correctly.

I did not figure out how to get a *.deb with the module compiled myself - just lack of knowledge of commands needed...
