[Bug 1986647] [NEW] Boinc Projects that use Virtualbox crash since Upgrade to 22.04.1

[Graham Jenkins]

Public bug reported:

After an update from Xubuntu 20.04 to 22.04.1 last week I find that
normal Boinc tasks like "NumberFields at home" continue to behave as
expected, and normal Virtualbox guests like FreeBSD, NetBSD and Alma
Linux continue to behave as expected.

But Boinc Rosetta at home tasks hang immediately and indefinitely with
message: "Communication with VM Hypervisor failed".

And 8-CPU Boinc LHC at home fail after 12 seconds with message:
"Computation error (8CPUs)".

I've re-installed boinc-virtualbox, Reset the offending projects, and
confirmed that virtualization is enabled in hardware.

I've seen exactly the same behavior on another (i5-3470S) running the
same OS and same Boinc and Virtualbox packages.
