Installing VirtualBox from Macports seems to work well, but not with vagrant. The build coming out of Macports puts a goofy version together and I think that throws off vagrant (see below). On another OSX Snow Leopard box, I have VirtualBox installed via DMG and all is well.

$ vagrant --version
Vagrant could not detect VirtualBox! Make sure VirtualBox is properly installed.
If VirtualBox is installed, it may be an incorrect version. Vagrant currently
requires VirtualBox 4.1.x. Please install the proper version to continue.

If you have an older or newer version of VirtualBox, please make sure you're
using the proper version of Vagrant. Ask the mailing list if you have questions.

$ VBoxManage --version
4.1.8_MacPortsr75467
