I have VirtualBox 5.0.16 (patched with Jom Klimov's 
https://github.comSunOS oi-h2015 5.11 illumos-cb92f41 i86pc i386 i86pc 
Solaris/jimklimov/vboxconfig_sh

VirtualBox-5.0.16-SunOS-r105871-illumos.tar.gz
And it works right on 2 OI hipster machines with  illumos-cb92f41 , with 
VT and without (I run xubuntu inside Vbox, XP and others), guests are 
32bit, could try also 64 bit.

Try re-installing VirtualBox (might need to patch vboxconfig_sh to 
uninstall) but you have patched Vbox on that Mega link if fresh installing.
What is your hardware? Mine is from C2Duo T5600 and Pentium E5200 era.
