Well, turns out your email got me going ;-) .
Right now I got it working without using a bridge. I can ping my
Windows XP VM and it can ping everything else on my side, however,
nmap won't work. I wonder why? Does the Windows firewall block it off?
Otherwise, everything works to my liking.

I would think such a script belongs in /usr/local/bin?

I would do that (create a bridge without any IFs attached and
then have them added dynamically), except the VBoxAddIF script in
virtualbox-ose-2.0.2 craps out on a missing file
(/var/run/VirtualBox/vboxnet). Google didn't yield anything useful.

When looking at the relevent line (237), apparently it's because the
directory doesn't exist so it can't create the file. What does it look
like on your system? Shouldn't the ebuild have created that directory?
