app-emulation/virtualbox-1.3.8 does not compile with a hardened gcc. switching to the vanilla gcc works for me (unseting LDFLAGS and USE flags does not). app-emulation/virtualbox-additions and app-emulation/virtualbox-modules do compile with a hardened gcc.

Added package.mask entry for hardened, upstream is aware of it but can't solve it yet. (Import of QEMU's stuff)
I reported this at http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/1262 (maybe it'll come up duped but nobody else bothered to link to the upstream ticket). Maybe Sun will fix it :).

Removed the package.mask as hardened has unstable/testing gcc-4.3.x.
