If that can't be used with virtualbox (and we already established
that, thanks to Michael's testing), that means it's broken with your
patch too.

I'm going to repeat it again for you:
 - that's already too much
 - that would still mean known regressions (which you'll try to blame
   on virtualbox, but not going to syslinux 5 means no problem, so just
   let's just not use that)
 - and above all: that wouldn't gain us anything at all.
