Yes, I did. It works well if I manually insert the vboxguest module.

To automatically load this module, I've just commit a patch to nixos
svn which adds the following line:

+ boot.extraModulePackages = [ pkgs.linuxPackages.virtualboxGuestAdditions ];

when the virtualbox service is enabled. Therefore the exectuable
"VBoxClient-all" could load the "vboxguest" module.
