Package: virtualbox-ose
Version: 1.6.6-dfsg-2
Severity: serious

There is some assertion failure in VirtualBox that is being outputed 
(thousand times a second? something like that) to /var/log/kern.log, 
/var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog.
This causes these files to grow very quickly untill the / filesystem is 
full. After five days of extensive usage of VirtualBox all the files 
have 1.5 GB of size each (4.5 GB altogether) and my root partition is 
full. Then I have to manually remove these files in order to be able to 
use my system again.

It seems that this is this, and only this, message:

Nov 10 20:32:34 localhost kernel: [ 5655.155124]
Nov 10 20:32:34 localhost kernel: [ 5655.155125] !!R0-Assertion Failed!!
Nov 10 20:32:34 localhost kernel: [ 5655.155126] Expression: <NULL>
Nov 10 20:32:34 localhost kernel: [ 5655.155127] Location  : 
/build/buildd/virtualbox-ose-1.6.6-dfsg/src/VBox/VMM/VMMAll/PGM
AllPool.cpp(2738) void pgmPoolTracDerefGCPhys(PGMPOOL*, PGMPOOLPAGE*, 
RTHCPHYS, RTGCPHYS)


repeated many, many times (there is so much of these asserts that it's 
impossible to check whether there are some other VBox outputs).

System: Debian testing AMD64.
The VBox kernel module is compiled from source (virtualbox-ose-source, 
1.6.6-dfsg-2).
