More info: After rm -rf ing /usr/src/modules/virtualbox-ose/,
"m-a a-i virtualbox-ose-source" compiles successfully.
So I guess there is either a bug in the Makefile, where some dependencies are
not declared correctly so it uses old object files from a former (probably
2.2.4) build or it's a bug in module-assisstant.

It obviously should not be necessary to manually clean up /usr/src/modules.

Cheers,
Michael
