Afaik, they are the same files that are in the kBuild directory in the
virtualbox tarball and without them, the binaries within the package are
useless, i.e. it does not really make sense to install the binaries in /usr/bin,
because it could still not be used by projects that do not ship a local copy of
kBuild.
